I must be dreaming again
For it can't really be
But who can blame me when I slip
Back into that old fantasy

My thoughts return once again
To the one I left behind
Where I can hold him in my arms again
If only in my mind

For only in my mind
Can I be near him
Since the day we had to part
If I can't have him by my side
Let me keep him in my heart I must be dreaming again
For I'm content just to be
Lost in some fairy tale of my design that only I can see

My mind is playing tricks again
Or perhaps it's being kind
Where I can hold him in my arms again
If only in my mind

Each time I call out his name
But he doesn't come to me
But still I feel him all the same,
He keeps me company
For only in my mind
Can I be near him
Since the day we had to part
If I can't have him by my side
Let me keep him in my heart

I must be dreaming again
Oh, but I'm content to be
Where I can hold him in my arms
Where I can hold him in my arms
Where I can hold him in my arms
If only in my mind.
