The moon blind-sided the sky again
As we grabbed loose ends of the tide and then
The slippery slide
You know I can't say when
I ever took a ride that could slap me this silly
With roiling joy
Lazy as sin
Lyin' up in heaven with my special friend
And the space he's in
It can make a girl grin
In the beginning of a lifelong fling
I wrote down a dream
Folded the note
Slipped it in the pocket of my tattered coat
I wrote down a dream
In invisible ink
It never was mine I'm beginning to think
I wrote down a dream
What more could I do
I drew myself a picture and the picture was you
I wrote myself a riddle
I said, What I wouldn't do
To give something good
To a love like you
As we grabbed loose ends of the tide and then
The slippery slide
You know I can't say when
I ever took a ride that could slap me this silly
With roiling joy
Lazy as sin
Lyin' up in heaven with my special friend
And the space he's in
It can make a girl grin
In the beginning of a lifelong fling
I wrote down a dream
Folded the note
Slipped it in the pocket of my tattered coat
I wrote down a dream
In invisible ink
It never was mine I'm beginning to think
I wrote down a dream
What more could I do
I drew myself a picture and the picture was you
I wrote myself a riddle
I said, What I wouldn't do
To give something good
To a love like you
