Each day through my window
|
I watch her as she passes by
|
I say to myself
|
You're such a lucky guy
|
To have a girl like her
|
Is truly a dream come true
|
Out of all the fellas in the world
|
She belongs to you
|
|
But it was just my imagination
|
Running away with me
|
It was just my imagination
|
Running away with me
|
|
Soon we'll be married and raise a family
|
A cozy little home
|
Out in the country
|
With two children, maybe three
|
|
I tell you I can visualize it all
|
This couldn't be a dream
|
For too real it all seems
|
|
But it was just my imagination
|
Once again
|
Running away with me
|
Tell you, it was just my imagination
|
Running away with me
|
|
Every night, on my knees I pray
|
Dear Lord, hear my plea
|
Don't ever let another take her love from me
|
Or I will surely die
|
Her love is heavenly
|
When her arms enfold me
|
I hear her tender rhapsody
|
But in reality
|
She doesn't even know me
|
|
It was just my imagination
|
Once again
|
Running away with me
|
Oh, tell you, it was just my imagination
|
Running away with me
|
|
I never met her
|
But I can't forget her
|
|
Just my imagination
|
Running away with me
|
Oooh, just my imagination
|
Running away with me
|
|
.. it was just my imagination
|
