Hopeless Thinking
I took mental pictures of your face.
What if those get away from me?
Hopelessly I'm hanging onto you.
You can't be just a dream.
But we're so far apart.
What if you don't wait?
Hopelessly I'm hanging onto you.
You can't be just a dream.
And what if you're somewhere laughing
Because I thought I had a chance?
Hopelessly I'm hanging onto you.
You can't be just a dream.
And what if you fall for someone new
And never think of me again?
Hopelessly I'm hanging onto you.
You can't be just a dream.
And what if that call is never coming
And I don't hear from you again?
Hopelessly I'm hanging onto you.
You can't be just a dream.
And what if I made you up in my head
So I could calm my thoughts?
Hopelessly I'm hoping that you
Are more than just a dream.
What if those get away from me?
Hopelessly I'm hanging onto you.
You can't be just a dream.
But we're so far apart.
What if you don't wait?
Hopelessly I'm hanging onto you.
You can't be just a dream.
And what if you're somewhere laughing
Because I thought I had a chance?
Hopelessly I'm hanging onto you.
You can't be just a dream.
And what if you fall for someone new
And never think of me again?
Hopelessly I'm hanging onto you.
You can't be just a dream.
And what if that call is never coming
And I don't hear from you again?
Hopelessly I'm hanging onto you.
You can't be just a dream.
And what if I made you up in my head
So I could calm my thoughts?
Hopelessly I'm hoping that you
Are more than just a dream.
