I held you close to me
  once in a distant dream,
  far from the shores of my fear.
  I sailed on the ocean where
  all I imagined could happen,
  and now you are here.
    It's so hard to touch
  what is out of our hands,
  to know and to trust
  what the heart understands.
    Only the ones who believe
  ever see what they dream,
  ever dream what comes true.
    Life gives us magic and
  life brings us tragedy.
  Everyone suffers some loss.
  Still we have faith in it,
  childlike hope.
  There's a reason that outweighs the cost.
    And gravity throws
  all these rules in our way.
  And sometimes the sprit
  refuses to play.
    Only the ones who believe
  ever see what they dream,
  ever dream what comes true.
    And oh, love,
  turn me around in your arms.
  And in this dream we share
  let us not miss one kiss.
    And add my regrets
  to the tears in the rain
  for that's what the color
  of roses contain.
    Only the ones who believe
  ever see what they dream,
  ever dream,
  ever dream what comes true.
