As I lay dreaming sleepily
Of you and of the past,
I came to understand that love
Is something that should last.
I dreamed of past relationships
And how they fell apart.
Then when I dreamed of you it helped
To reassure my heart.
I dreamed of hope and honesty,
Of love which we could share,
And then I smiled when I awoke
To find you lying there.
