Dreams of love

Rather than tell you the dream I had last night that shaped my morning, I'll just post this song I wrote that represents it melodically. I almost cried.


"'Cause I spent that dime" by Tenbatsu
ttto "For the Longest Time" by Billy Joel

Yesterday you told me stay away.
Changed your mind after the jukebox played.
And now my soul sings
With the tune that Billy Joel brings.
And I'm so happy that I spent that dime.

I don't know what I would have done
If you walked away, and I was alone.
Now we walk together hand in hand
I am your man
And it's all that I hoped for...

I assumed that you would just reject
Then I saw that music take effect.
Its like I planned it.
Didn't know I was romantic.
I wouldn't be unless I spent that dime.

Woah, oh oh oh
Cause I spent that dime
Woah oh oh
Cause I spent that...

You sit next to me inside my car
Never thought that I would get this far
We're going shopping,
On occasion go bar hopping.
And it is all because I spent that dime.

Who'd have thought this would happen to me?
I'm meant for you. You're my destiny.
Looking in your eyes I'm entranced.
I think as we dance
that it's all that I hoped for...

I'm so glad that you're as sweet as I.
When you see a shooting star you cry.
And in the whole world
if you were any other girl
It wouldn't matter that I spent that dime.

Woah, oh oh oh
Cause I spent that dime
Woah oh oh
Cause I spent that...

We have been together for a while.
And I can't get tired of your smile.
So then I smile, too
Every time that I look at you.
I'm only smiling cause I spent that dime

I wonder how long this love will last;
I've had some bad loves in the past.
But I feel this will never end.
I guess it all depends
For now it's all that I hoped for...

We may argue, sometimes we get wild,
but we never yell around our child.
He looks just like you,
I guess that he looks like me, too!
And now I know him cause I spent that dime.

Woah, oh oh oh
Cause I spent that dime
Woah oh oh
Cause I spent that...

I had doubts at the start I admit.
Never did our love waiver a bit.
I love you so much
And I love the feel of your touch.
My world's complete because I spent that dime.

Just to think a jukebox made you stop
You almost walked out of that shop.
Amazing to think we're two of a kind
Body, soul, and mind
And it's all that I hoped for...

Years later I remember our love.
I know you look down from up above.
I miss you so bad
Remember the good times we had
I praise the Lord because I spent that dime.

Woah, oh oh oh
Cause I spent that dime
Woah oh oh
Cause I spent that...

Woah, oh oh oh
Cause I spent that dime
Woah oh oh
Cause I spent that...
