Each day through my window I watch her as she passes by

I say to myself, "You're such a lucky guy"

To have a girl like her is truly a dream come true

Out of all the fellas in the world, she belongs to you

But it was just my imagination,

Running away with me

It was just my imagination,

Running away with me



Soon we'll be married and raise a family

A cozy little home, out in the country, with two children, maybe three

I tell you I can visualize it all

This couldn't be a dream, for too real it all seems



But it was just my imagination, once again

Running away with me



Tell you, it was just my imagination,

Running away with me

Every night, on my knees I pray

"Dear lord, hear my plea

Don't ever let another take her love from me

Or I will surely die"

Her love is heavenly

When her arms enfold me

I hear her tender rhapsody

But in reality, she doesn't even know me



It was just my imagination, once again

Running away with me

Oh, tell you, it was just my imagination,

Running away with me



I never met her, but I can't forget her

Just my imagination, yeah, yeah, yeah

Running away with me



Oooh, just my imagination,

Running away with me



(Fades
