ask me

i still believe in magic 
if you should wish to know 
i dream dreams of the future 
of shoe prints in the snow 

i see more than the imprint 
of just my lonely shoe 
i still believe that someday 
her print will be there too 

remember spring and when it comes 
the signs of life renewed 
i dream anew the dreams of old 
of love to be pursued 

i dream of lonely beaches 
of walking hand in hand 
of blue sky and warm sunshine 
and endless golden sand 

i think of autumn colours 
leaf shaped which swirl and fall 
of log fires burning in the hearth 
i dream i hear her call 

i still believe in magic 
that life will find a way 
all i need to do is wait 
till true love comes to stay 

so if you care to ask me 
what do i still dream of 
then i will answer loud and clear 
why, i still dream of love
