I hope that I won't be that wrong anymore,
And maybe I've learned this time.
I hope that I find what I'm reaching for,
The way that it is in my mind.
Someday I'll get over you.
I'll live to see it all through.
But I'll always miss,
Dreaming my dreams with you.
But I won't let it change me,
Not if I can.
I'd rather believe in love.
And give it away as much as I can,
To those that I'm fondest of.
Someday I'll get over you.
I'll live to see it all through.
But I'll always miss,
Dreaming my dreams with you.
Someday I'll get over you.
I'll live to see it all through.
But I'll always miss,
Dreaming my dreams with you.
