I`m standing in the backyard
Listening to the party inside
Tonight I`m drinkin` in the forgiveness
This life provides
The scars we carry remain but the pain slips away it seems
Oh won`t you baby be in my book of dreams
I`m watchin` you through the window
With your girlfriends from back home
You`re showin` off your dress
There`s laughter and a toast
From your daddy to the prettiest bride he`s ever seen
Oh won`t you baby be in my book of dreams
In the darkness my fingers slip across your skin
I feel your sweet reply
The room fades away and suddenly I`m way up high
Just holdin` you to me
As through the window the moonlight streams
Oh won`t you baby be in my book of dreams
Now the ritual begins
`Neath the wedding garland we meet as strangers
The dance floor is alive with beauty
Mystery and danger
We dance out `neath the stars` ancient light into the darkening trees
Oh won`t you baby be in my book of dreams |
