Daydream

Going through the motions in my every day-to-day
 Searching for atonement in my own peculiar way
 There's always a hurdle, a barrier to break through
 Some folks can remember more, and some remember less
 And life's a grand adventure on the quest for happiness
 I took it to the road last night to try and lighten my head
 I was driving down I-55 and Don Williams was playing
 And I thought of you, I thought of you, I thought of you
 Lost inside a melody of timelessness and memories and trust
 The stars up in the sky are just like polka dots to me
 The satellites take pictures of their bright intensity
 And if there's a heaven up there, I'd swear it has familiarity
 Sittin' on the porch last night, the neighbor's dog was barking
 And I thought of you, I thought of you, I thought of you
 I want to say this carefully,
 and I hope that you can understand me now
 I think you know the way I feel about you
 'Cause everyone has seen it in my smile
 I have higher self esteem locked inside my daydream
 But I'll try, and the chance is worthwhile
 And I've known you for a long, long time
 And I've wondered how long I will be alone
 But now I find it's something I always knew
 And it's about time to say, "I love you"
 Many are the nights in which I've laid in bed awake
 Hoping I can fall asleep so I can see your face
 And in the day, it's quite the same, my thoughts are far away
 I think it's 'cause I feel safest in my space
 It's hard to be rejected when your
 feelings aren't reflected in what you say
 And sometimes my intentions are really just extensions of my fears
 But every day contains a moment when I'm not too focused
 And I think of you, I really do, I think of you
 I need to say this carefully,
 and I hope you don't misunderstand me now
 I think you know the way I feel about you
 'Cause everyone has seen it in my smile
 I have higher self esteem locked inside my daydream
 But I'll try, and the chance is worthwhile
 And I've known you for a long, long time
 And I've wondered how long I will be alone
 But now I find it's something I always knew
 And it's about time to say, "I love you"
