Dream Love, One Man

lyrics and music by David Berry

Hey, you know you make me slip into a fantasy
I can fancy you to be the one to make me believe in myself
As a girl I believ’d in the stories of a perfect love
Now I’m older, none the wiser, and my hopes remain the same.

Dream Love, One Man
Is it real or just imagined?
One Chance? True love?
I don’t know.

Hey, it’s too unfair to hope that you could be
Any more than a bright spot to help relieve these tired eyes
Still a girl and afraid, wanting you to humor me
I feel older, not much safer, and my needs still strangle me.

Dream Love, One Man....

Who am I trying to fool?
Guess it’s clear to see
Stories out of school
Told on me.
What will it take for me to hold on to a dream love?
Is it real or just imagined?

You know I’ve spread myself too thin
Don’t even want to think about the crash you’ll hear, the shattered pieces under your feet
As you pick your way through, walking to the lucky girl
Who will have you, who won’t be me, who won’t know what you might have been

A Dream Love, One Man....
