Falling In Love With My Dream Girl

Falling in love with my dream woman


When I was a young man
I dreamt of meeting a woman
For eight years she haunted my dreams

Then I met her in Korea
Where I was teaching
For the U.S. army
After finishing the peace corps


I had a choice
Follow my heart
Seize the moment
Be with her

Or leave Korea
Within a month
To go to graduate school

I decided to postpone
My graduate school
For one year

Got a deferred admission
And joined the woman
Of my dreams

Thinking back
I had no real choice
But I chose to walk
The path of life
With my dream girl

And that has made
All the difference
In the world
