MY DREAMS ARE LIKE A MOVIE

i close my eyes and go to sleep
then i begin to dream
and beneath my twitching eyeballs
many images will stream

i know that, soon, my loved one
will be coming into view
my dreams are like a movie
and the star is always you

i don't know what we'll do there
it is different every time
the day will choose the flavor
of the evening's flowing rhyme

i find i am enraptured
by the play that will ensue
my dreams are like a movie
and the star is always you

the reels begin unwinding
no projectionist controls
a little voice says, "action"
and the script inside unrolls

each day i'm in your company
and when that day is through
my dreams are like a movie
and the star is always you
