Love Blondie and I love this song! I think she is dreaming about her future, she might have seen someone in a restaurant and started dreaming about what would happen if he asked her out and they got together. She says "I never met him but I'll never forget him" It makes me think that it's someone she never actually talked to but he made her imagine what their future could be "Imagine something of your very own; something you can have and hold". I think part of it is also about what she could have if she had more money "I don't want to live on charity" could mean she doesn't have alot of money to spend but it's fun to dream about what you would do if you were rich-dreaming is free! The song always reminds me that even if things aren't perfect or exactly as you'd want them in real life, you can escape into fantasy for a little while and be happy. =)
