To Dream the Dream Lyrics

there was a ballerina
you know the one from the coast
she had a certain air of confidence & nervousness
winner sure let in a little girl as one
she had a dance that knocked me dead
lips that took my breath away
her hair slow motion in the noon day sun
flowed like waves for everyone
chorus
to dream the dream
the best i'd ever seen
you know what i mean
to dream the dream

maybe up in colorado
when i first caught a glimpse of her beauty
many faces at the station
so i climbed the high wire fence to see her
she looked at me and we talked
she wrapped me up in her complete enchantment
she flirted with her eyes since the day she was born
flirted from the day she was born
touched my soul and it felt so right
eyes were glistening in the cool daylight
chorus

when the night fell i stepped inside to see
as bright as any star could shine
she stood in front of me
lovers sure let in a little girl as one
she had a smile that knocked me dead
lips that took my breath away
her hair slow motion in the candlelight
eyes on fire in the heat of the night
to dream the dream
the best i'd ever seen
ballerina queen
things are'nt always what they seem
to dream the dream
you know what i mean
eyes glistening and everything
in the dream she stood in front of me
touched my very soul
as bright as any star could shine
she stood in front of me
