Why don't you dream anymore?
What's in the way?
How come you point to the door
And ask me to stay?
Why don't you flash out that smile
Like you used to do?
Why don't you stay for a while?
Uh well it's up to you, 'cause

You are the girl
That keeps me up at night
You are the girl
That makes me feel all right
You are the girl
But will you give me a twirl?
You are the girl
In my dreams

Why don't ya talk anymore?
What did I say?
How is it what I came for
Is floating away?
Why don't you flash out that smile
Like you used to do?
Why don't you stay for a while?
Uh well it's up to you, 'cause

You are the girl
That keeps me up at night
You are the girl
That makes me feel all right
You are the girl
(You are the girl)
Will you give me a twirl?
(You are the girl)
(You are the girl)
In my dreams

Why don't you dream anymore?
What's in the way?
How come you point to the door
And ya ask me to stay?
Why don't you flash out that smile
Like you used to do?
Why don't you stay for a while?
Oh 'cause it's up to you, 'cause

You are the girl
That keeps me up at night
You are the girl
That makes me feel all right
You are the girl
(You are the girl)
Oh you give me a twirl
(You are the girl)
(You are the girl)
In my dreams

Well, you are the girl
(You are the girl)
And you give me a twirl
(You are the girl)
(You are the girl)
In my dreams

Oh (you are the girl)
In my dreams
