I hope that I wont be that wrong anymore,
Maybe I'll learn this time
I hope that I find what I'm reaching for
The way that it is in my mind,

[Chorus]
Someday I'll get over you,
I'll live to see it all through
But I'll always miss
Dreaming my dreams with you

But I wont let it change me,
Not if I can,
I'd rather believe in love
And give it away as much as I can
To those that I'm fondest of 

[Chorus: x2]
