p.y.t. - a girl can dream lyrics

when i was a child the story would say
somebody would sweep you off your feet someday
that's what i hoped 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 when i would get the chance
just when i worked up the courage to try
much to my surprise
you had somebody else
cuz these feelings i keep to myself

[chorus:]
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
i think about what could be all the time
all the happiness that i could find
baby a girl can dream

from the moment i wake up
'til i fall asleep
i imagine you not with her but with me
talkin' and laughin'
sharin' our dreams
it's just a fantasy
cuz you had somebody else
cuz these feelings i keep to myself

[repeat chorus]

a girl can dream it's true
and to call you my own
is the sweetest dream of all

[repeat chorus]

oh a girl can dream
