I used to have a perfect sweetheart
Not a real one, just a dream;
A wonderful vision of us as a team.
Can you imagine how I feel now?
Love is real now, it's ideal;
You're just what I wanted,
And now it's nice to live, paradise to live.
I know why I've waited, know why I've been blue;
Prayed each night for someone exactly like you.
Why should we spend money on a show or two?
No one does those love scenes exactly like you.
You make me feel so grand,
I want to hand the world to you;
You seem to understand
Each foolish little scheme I'm scheming,
Dream I'm dreaming.
Now I know why mother taught me to be true
She meant me for someone exactly like you.
