So long ago, you were a dream I knew
But only a dream, never thought I'd find
And so with the passage of time gone by
Still yet, lives that lovely dream in my mind.

And then, the magic in the poem I wrote,
Brought to life the mystic thought only dreamed
And then, alive came thoughts of loving you
Then passion flourished, or so it seemed.

In dreams we met, and passion's kiss thrilled me
And you're as real as the beats of my heart,
For surely, 'tiz a testament of love,
Ever sealed in lovers kiss, though dreams end parts.

Yet, those sleepless nights that keep me from you,
I've known dreams true love that will see me through.
