In My Dreams

My dearest daughter

In my dreams, we walk together

In my dreams, we talk together

In my dreams, we go to the park together

In my dreams, we go to Subway together



I know how you like your tuna with honey muster on it

You introduced me to it and now that is the only way I'll have it

I know how you love movies especially the scary ones

I take you to movies with your friends and we'd have popcorn and soda

We would go to the Shopping mall and I buy you whatever you liked



How you love those pretzels tots and lemon aid

We would wipe the salt off for it is just too salty

You loved wristbands so we'd buy some and some strange comic books

I'd ask you how your day was going and how is school

You always replied, "It's okay. Everything is fine."



You always like to keep it short and simple for some reason

I would take your hand and we would fly across the sky together

We were free as birds of a feather together

In my dream, it's just you and me

We are songs with four part harmonies



What I loved about you is that you were open to listening to my music as well

We would stroll through fields of flowers

You would pick one, just one and hand it to me

In my dreams, we would go to the amusement park

You loved the ride that is a swing



You went on with a little boy for he was afraid to go on by himself

I thought that was so sweet your concern for others

I would hug you and tell you how beautiful you are

I would say to you that you are the most beautiful girl on the planet

You would reply "Stop. I'm not."



I would say, "To me you are more beautiful than the blue sky."

In my dreams just you and me

I would tell you how cars would stop and people would just look at you

In my dreams you still loved me

In my dreams you still do
