Only In My Dreams

let's go back to the beginning
back to a time where knights were 
in white armor and they held flags high
princes were beggars in rich clothing 
and princesses snuck out against their parents wishes
just to find their prince charming
singing to themselves in the town square
and breathing in the fresh village air
time was simpler then...simple and challenging at the same time
but people were happier
dancing around the square,
around their homes
singing non-sense songs
and holding their loves in their arms while 
whispering sweet nothings in their ear.

The love of a century...
sweet kisses delivered by lovers under a lovers moon
warm embraces that follow a dance beneath shadowy trees
a love so sweet, it brings me to my knees
I sigh and hum..

Only in my dreams
only ever....
in my dreams
