When I Dream - Nanci Griffith

I could have a mansion

That is higher than the trees

I could have all the gifts

I want and never ask please

I could fly to Paris oh

It's at my beck and call

Why do I go through life with nothing at all

But when I dream I dream of you

Maybe someday you will come true

I can be the singer or the clown in every room

I can even call someone to take me to the moon

I can put my makeup on

And drive the men insane

I can go to bed alone and never know his name

But when I dream I dream of you

Maybe someday you will come true

But when I dream I dream of you

Maybe someday you will come true
