In Your Dreams Lyrics

Well I was fifteen trying to make my way at a brand new school
But because I rode in the rodeo I wasn’t very cool

There was this girl in my homeroom class that gave my heart a stir
Raven hair and big green eyes, I thought I’d talk to her

CHORUS 1:
(And she said) In your dreams cowboy
I can’t be seen with you
If you’ll just open your eyes you’d see I’m not right for you

Cause I like lace and satin, and you wear those old jeans
But have no fear, all’s not lost
You can love me in your dreams

Well I turned pro, went out one night to celebrate first place
When I saw her with all her friends I said it’s good to see your face

CHORUS 2:
(And she said) In your dreams cowboy
I can’t go out with you
If you’ll just open your eyes you’d see I’m no good for you
’Cause I love silk and satin, and you’re still wearing jeans
But have no fear, all’s not lost
You can love me in your dreams

But I never gave up and finally she gave in
For fifty years we’ve been best friends
I hold her hand in the hospital room, my tears rain down
I say how am I supposed to love you if you’re not around

CHORUS 3:
(And she said) In your dreams cowboy
I’ll be right there with you
If you’ll just open your eyes you’d see
I’m still in love with you

But soon I’ll be in heaven, and then I’ll have my wings
But have no fear when I’m gone
You can love me in your dreams
I’ll love you in your dreams
