Why shouldn't I take a chance when romance passes by?. Why shouldn't I know of love?. Why wait around when each age has a sage who has sung. That upon this earth love is all that is really worth thinking of?.
Oh, for just the chance to love you. Would I love you, love you, love you. To take you in my arms. Has always been my goal. Sure as there's a moon above you.
Dreaming, dreaming of you. . With my eyes wide open I'm dreaming. Can it be true I'm holding you close to my heart?. With my eyes wide open I'm dreaming.
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas. Just like the ones I used to know. Where the tree tops glisten. And children listen. To hear sleigh bells in the snow.
(Dream, dream, dream, dream, dream). Woke up this mornin' and I looked around. So disappointed, I laid back down. Oh, what a dream, oh, what a dream I had last night.
With my eyes wide open, I'm dreaming.... Can it be true. I'm holding you. Close to my heart?. With my eyes wide open, I'm dreaming.... You're with me now.
I know the language of your laugh. Tripping over circumstance. . I know the story of your walk. I taste the sugar and the salt. . I taste and savor your little ways.
Willy is my child, he is my father. I would be his lady all my life. He says he'd love to live with me. But for an ancient injury. That has not healed.
Why do fools fall in love?. Why do birds sing so gay. And lovers await the break of day. Why do they fall in love. Why does the rain fall from up above.
Remember when we used to sneak out. Remember when we would howl at the moon. Radio crackling Sweet Melissa. On a sticky summer night in June. . You always wore that corduroy jacket.
I got a beat up ego the size of my Durango boot. If I could get resoled, re-heeled, If I could get a redo. I don't have too many regrets about my misspent youth.
We kiss in the shadow, we hide from the moon. Our meetings are few and over too soon. We speak in a whisper, afraid to be heard. When people are near, we speak not a word.
Though the world has grown cold. We can vanish the chill. We can order the present to vanish at will. . We can darken the room, we can start the machine.
I worked all day long out in the cold and snow. I come home lookin' for my supper. You're around some whiskey store. . You're just a whiskey drinkin' woman.
Where were you when my first love came callin'. My heart kept on fallin' like a stone?. Where were you when, I left home for college. Traded that first love for knowledge?.
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas. Just like the ones I used to know. Where the tree tops glisten. And children listen. To hear sleigh bells in the snow.
You take my hand. And you hold my heart. You stand by me. And I can touch the stars. . I can see eternity in your eyes. Now, we're looking. For a tune forever.
When love goes wrong. Nothing goes right. This one thing I know. When love goes wrong. A man takes flight. And women get uppity-oh. . The sun don't beam.
