You were only a moment, a day in a dream,
and I'm falling to bits every year
that passes without you,
a fool, I believe
you're bound to appear.
So I call you- I scream out your name,
And you return with a voice no one hears.
And scared that your love is the ghost in my dream
I take to your side.
I hold you near
and I promise, dear:
I'll marry you soon as you're seen.
Darling, I'll tell you what:
You're my girl
You're the sun in the sky.
The moment I see you, I'll fall on my knees.
You have no idea, do you?
