As we eye the blue horizon's bend,
Earth and sky appear to meet and end,
But it's merely an illusion;
Like your heart and mine there is no sweet conclusion

I can see
No matter how near you'll be
You'll never belong to me,
But I can dream, can't I?
Can't I pretend that I'm locked in the bend of your embrace?
For dreams are just like wine,
And I am drunk with mine.

I'm aware
My heart is a sad affair
There's much disillusion there
But I can dream, can't I?
Can't I adore you
Although we are oceans apart?
I can't make you open your heart
But I can dream, can't I?

I'm aware
My heart is a sad affair
There's much disillusion there
But I can dream, can't I?
Can't I adore you
Although we are oceans apart?
I can't make you open your heart
But I can dream, can't I?

Can't I pretend that I'm locked in the bend of your embrace?
For dreams are just like wine,
And I am drunk with mine.

I'm aware
My heart is a sad affair
There's much disillusion there
But I can dream, can't I?
Can't I adore you
Although we are oceans apart?
I can't make you open your heart
But I can dream, can't I?
