Written by Greg Spencer

lyrics

And now my love has gone away
it seems like only yesterday
he held me up so tightly in his arms
promising the riches of a life lived far away
where none could ever do us any harm
but now it seems those faded dreams
are just as far as him from me
I gave my heart to him do I have his?
times have been so tough that I think I've had enough
and I'm ready to give up that wish.

But when I was just a little girl
I dreamed of diamond rings and pearls
making all the boys go wild and mad
marble floors all trimmed with gold
satin sheets for maids to fold
and anything that I could ever ask
but dreams come and go so easily
like summer blowing through the trees
tears falling from a baby's eyes
now all that I want to do
is find a life that's fit for two
with a man who's strong and wise

Show me all my fears
and now they all just seem to disappear
when I'm with you, I'm never blue
everyday is sunshine and the nights are warmer too
don't you know its cruel to keep me waiting, always hesitating to call on you?
I'm longing to be good to you
know I'll be forever true
oh please don't make me out to be a fool
but even if I am honey, you can still be my man.

Now you know the story of
a broken heart that falls in love
with a voice that whispers softly in it's ear
no more want for fancy things
a heart can't wear a diamond ring
but it longs for another to be near...
