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 the tick of time
There’s no law I wouldn’t break
if loving you became a crime

Love is not an empty word
an empty thought
an empty dream
Love is an insatiable beast
that feeds on gold and gasoline

If I were to build a dream
and fill it up with
thoughts of you
We both know that dream will end
like you, my friend
and like me too
