When I was a child the story would say
  Somebody would sweep you off your feet someday
  That's what I hoped would happen with you
  More than you could know
  I wanted to tell you that my heart's in your hands
  I prayed for the day when I would get the chance
  Just when I worked up the courage to try
  Much to my surprise
  You had somebody else
  Cuz these feelings I keep to myself
    [CHORUS:]
  I may never get to hold you so tight
  I may never get to kiss you goodnight
  I may never get to look deep in your eyes
  Or so it seems
  I always will be wishing you were mine
  I think about what could be all the time
  All the happiness that I could find
  Baby a girl can dream
    From the moment I wake up
  'Til I fall asleep
  I imagine you not with her but with me
  Talkin' and laughin'
  Sharin' our dreams
  It's just a fantasy
  Cuz you had somebody else
  Cuz these feelings I keep to myself
    [REPEAT CHORUS]
    A girl can dream it's true
  And to call you my own
  Is the sweetest dream of all
    [REPEAT CHORUS]
    Oh a girl can dream
