I used to have a perfect sweetheart
Not a real one, just a dream
A wonderful vision
Of us as a team
Can you imagine how I feel now?
Love is real now, it's ideal
You're just what I wanted
And now it's nice to live
Paradise to live
I know why I've waited
Know why I've been blue
Prayed each night for someone
Exactly like you
Why should we spend money
On a show or two?
Oh, no one does those loves scenes
Exactly like you
You make me feel so grand
I want to hand the world to you
You seem to understand
Each foolish little scheme I'm scheming
Dream I'm dreaming
Now I know why mother
Taught me to be true
She meant me for someone
Exactly like you
I know why I've waited
Know why I've been blue
Prayed each night for someone
Exactly like you
Why should we spend money
On a show or two?
No one does those loves scenes
Exactly like you
You make me feel so grand
I want to hand the world to you
You seem to understand
Each foolish little scheme I'm scheming
Dream I'm dreaming
Now I know why my mama
Taught me to be true
She meant me for someone
Exactly like you
