Long ago my heart and mind
Got together and designed
The wonderful guy for me
Oh what a fantasy

Thought the ideal of my heart
Can't be ordered a la carte
I wonder if he will be
Always a fantasy

Will I ever find the guy in my mind?
The one who is my ideal
Maybe he's a dream and yet he might be
Just around the corner waiting for me

Will I recognize the light in his eyes
That no other eyes reveal
Or will I pass her by and never even know
That she was my ideal

[Instrumental solos]

Will I recognize the light in his eyes
That no other eyes reveal
Or will I pass her by and never even know
That he is my ideal
