I Never Dreamed of You

When I was young and foolish I dreamed of tomorrows
Like no other and wrestled with lovers under the covers
And life was good with golden days, warm nights
Filled with passion and delight
And I never dreamed of you

I dreamed of wealth and personal fame
And lovers uncountable and the thrill of the game
And all was bright and life was good
And we all took all that we could
And I never dreamed of you

As I grew older the number of lovers
Grew smaller but not the quality
Of their passion and the days were short
And the nights were long and delicious
And I never dreamed of you

Now I know you, a beautiful, wonderful girl
Your large, loving heart has room for all
From lovers to friends to people just met
Your smile given freely to all
And I only dream of you
