Lyrics

I dreamed last night about a perfect place but love was lost and hearts still ached
She caught my eye but I was afraid
I turned my head and walked away

Ive got Kisses in my pocket Ive got so much more to give
Two hearts broken in the same places won’t you please just let me in


She was always on my mind the days and year flew by
Always thought I lived a lie
when she came back I knew I was right
