The Dreams That I Dream (for Tonya)

I am but a simple man with simple dreams

I always thought that love was out of reach

Till you came along and proved me wrong

And so I owe you everything I have

Very few people ever get to feel love like this

And I am so indebted to you for giving it to me

I have always read about love and happiness

But nothing I have ever read compares to this

The way you give of yourself completely

Just to make me happy and so full of cheer

Is more than any person in this world deserves

And I am truly grateful for it all

How can anyone ever repay such love and devotion?

I just don’t think it possible to express the gratitude

But I will spend every moment of every day

To give to you all that you give to me

For YOU are the dreams that I dream!
