Only In My Dreams

I'll see the sparkle in your eyes
even across the room
Filled with passion we can't disguise
a flame that will consume

I'll watch as you move to my side
to embrace me in dance
A warmth will fill me as we glide
wrapped in sweet romance

You'll whisper softly in my ear
words burning with desire
My heart pounds when you draw me near
setting my flesh on fire

You'll capture my lips staking claim
to all of me it seems
Now I surrender to our flame
but only in my dreams

I'll open eyes to morning light
released from fantasy
To await what comes with the night,
return to ecstasy
