If I were to build a woman
from my dreams
she would be you
But we both know that dreams aren’t real
even when they do come true
Dreams don’t have to obey laws
like gravity or
ticking time
There’s nothing a man won’t do
to break the law when love’s the crime
Love is not an empty word
an empty thought
an empty dream
Love is an unruly beast
that’s made of gold and gasoline
If I were to build a dream
and fill it up with
all of you
We both know the dream will end
like you, my friend
and like me too
