If Only In My Mind

I must be dreaming again
 For it can't really be
 But who can blame me when I slip
 Back into that old fantasy
 My thoughts return once again
 To the one I left behind
 Where I can hold him in my arms again
 If only in my mind
 For only in my mind
 Can I be near him
 Since the day we had to part
 If I can't have him by my side
 Let me keep him in my heart I must be dreaming again
 For I'm content just to be
 Lost in some fairy tale of my design that only I can see
 My mind is playing tricks again
 Or perhaps it's being kind
 Where I can hold him in my arms again
 If only in my mind
 Each time I call out his name
 But he doesn't come to me
 But still I feel him all the same,
 He keeps me company
 For only in my mind
 Can I be near him
 Since the day we had to part
 If I can't have him by my side
 Let me keep him in my heart I must be dreaming again
 Each time I call out his name
 But he doesn't come to me
 But still I feel him all the same,
 My thoughts return to him
 The one I left behind
 Where I can hold him in my arms
 If only in my mind.
