I'd Dream About Love ,If I Could.

I’d dream about love

If I could.

Instead I dream about motorbikes and racing cars

About writing books and a sailing barge

But I’d dream about love,

If I could.

 

Sometimes I dream about a pretty girl

With beautiful hair and big round eyes

She dreams about love,

Well, if she doesn’t,

she should.

 

I’d dream about love

If I dared.

Instead I dream about sunny beaches,

About swimming pools and bars,

and very fast cars

but I’d dream about love

if I dared.

 

I’d dream about love,

I would.

If I wasn’t stubborn and stuck in my ways

If I wasn’t lost in a love of the past,

I’d dream about love,

If I could.

love
