A Girl Can Dream

When I was child, the story would say,
Somebody will sweep you off your feet someday.
That's what I hope would happen with you,
More than you could know.
I wanted to tell you that my heart's in your hands,
I prayed for the day that I would get the chance.
And just when I worked up the courage to try,
Much to my surprise,
You had somebody else.
'Cause these feelings,
I keep to myself.
I may never get to hold you, so tight.
I may never get to kiss you, goodnight.
I may never get to look deep in your eyes,
Or so it seems.
I always will be wishing you were mine,
And think about what could be, all the time.
All the happiness that I can find.
Baby, a girl can dream.
From the moment I wake up 'til I fall asleep,
I imagine you're not with her, but with me.
Talking and laughing, sharing our dreams,
It's just a fantasy.
'Cause you had somebody else.
'Cause these feelings,
I keep to myself.
I may never get to hold you, so tight.
I may never get to kiss you, goodnight.
I may never get to look deep in your eyes,
Or so it seems.
I always will be wishing you were mine,
And think about what could be, all the time.
All the happiness that I could find.
Baby, a girl can dream.
A girl can dream, it's true,
And to call you own,
It's the sweetest dream I know.
I may never get to hold you, so tight.
I may never get to kiss you, goodnight.
I may never get to look deep in your eyes,
Or so it seems.
I always will be wishing you were mine,
And think about what could be, all the time.
All the happiness that I can find.
Baby, a girl can dream.
Oh, a girl can dream.
