Love and life and laughter
Is all I believe
My Savior is pure now
Because my lonely heart would bleed
I never learned how to hold love
And stay strong to love
Now I close my eyes now
And I'm dreamin' right where I belong

Here we lie all alone in my dreamin'
Your eyes move my soul it's unbelievin'
Now you see the me, get my feelin'
How'm I feelin

I feel your hands, your lips the heat of your body
Whisper you love me, you say you love me
Please don't dumb it down and never leave me
I'm a dreamer

Here we lie all alone in my dreamin'
Your eyes move my soul it's unbelievin'
Now you see the me, get my feelin'
How'm I feelin

I feel your hands, your lips the heat of your body
Whisper you love me, you say you love me
Please don't dumb it down and never leave me
I'm a dreamer
Am I dreamer
Am I dreamer

Love and life and laughter
Is all I believe
My Savior is pure now
Because my lonely heart would bleed
I never learned how to hold love
And stay strong to love
Now I close my eyes now
And I'm dreamin' right where I belong

Here we lie all alone in my dreamin'
Your eyes move my soul it's unbelievin'
Now you see the me, get my feelin'
How'm I feelin

I feel your hands, your lips the heat of your body
Whisper you love me, you say you love me
Please don't dumb it down and never leave me
I'm a dreamer

Here we lie all alone in my dreamin'
Your eyes move my soul it's unbelievin'
Now you see the me, get my feelin'
How'm I feelin

I feel your hands, your lips the heat of your body
Whisper you love me, you say you love me
Please don't dumb it down and never leave me
I'm a dreamer
