Girl Of My Dreams

do you ever wonder what it’s all about? can a simple person figure it out?

space and time, reason and rhyme, justice, honor and peace

i knew when i saw her eyes of brown that nothing would ever keep me down

from now until the day that i drown i’ve found the girl of my dreams

when all those bright lights again stream in 

throw caution high to twist in the wind

that long lost longing for love kicks in when you find the girl of your dreams

she takes me down, she gives me life, she’s heroin, sugar and spice 

clean and dirty, naughty and nice, she’s love, she’s pain

let us run nude on an island, pure and free, never to cry again 

live like kings and queens, with the girl of my dreams

i’ve always swung from the tallest trees 

and got it done with the greatest of ease

but i only dream what a good boy dreams, my life has been fast and loose

but from the dark and out of the blue 

she pulled the string, tightened the screw

offered her own unique point of view and now my worries are few

god has given her unparalleled pizzazz 

like L&M cigarettes and early sixties jazz 

soft and bluesy, she ultimately has got nothing to gain

voice like peggy lee, loves brubeck and miles 

what you see is just the way she swings 

living life to extremes with the girl of my dreams

let us in, unlock the asylum, wounds are healed, i’m ready to die again 

how sweet it seems, when you find the girl of your dreams

and so wherever we may run, we’ll always have a place in the sun 

wish love and peace for everyone, may dark clouds never loom

so give me the white picket fence, children playing, dogs and cats 

the full blue moon
