[Verse 1] I had a dream when I was just a little boy To find a girl like you We would meet at the park after school And talk till the day was through Then, you take me to your parent's house And I would comb your hair And we would dream of all the cities And places we could go [Chorus] Say the words that you know I wanna hear Put your heart up close to my ear We don't need to know the time We could stay till the day turns to night [Verse 2] I can still remember dreams as a little boy Now, I'm a man and still can't put down my toys Real love will never come if you in it now But I had to learn that lesson down in the south Back to spending nights on the town, just to have a little fun In my mind, I'm wishing she's the one (I said to myself) Is this too close to reality For you to be that girl from my fantasy? [Chorus] Say the words that you know I wanna hear Put your heart up close to my ear We don't need to know the time We could stay till the day turns to night [Bridge] She stole my head and let's go play the dream again To find a girl like you (only you and me around) I look into your eyes And I see our universe (you and I are intertwined) I look into your eyes And I see our universe (love is pure, so divine) [Chorus] Say the words that you know I wanna hear Put your heart up close to my ear We don't need to know the time We could stay till the day turns to night Say the words that you know I wanna hear Put your heart up close to my ear We don't need to know the time We could stay till the day turns to night [Outro] This is dedicated From the fire, we'll rise To my one and only ever love I would never, ever, ever, ever love again This is dedicated (you know who you are) To my one and only ever love (the only girl I've ever loved)
