Johnston, Daniel - Girl Of My Dreams Lyrics






Memories like leaves are fallin'
On the ground and soon to be forgotten
We had it all for about a long time
But the long time is far gone

And the yesterdays have all faded away
Yes, the yesterdays have all faded away

Seems like not so long ago
I kissed you on that Holy Night
You seemed to like it
You said there'd be trouble
I really did love you
Only because
You were the girl of my dreams
Girl of my dreams

I had you in there in eternity
Just you and me just like it was
I know for sure you really did love me
But then again, you acted bothered
She had a split personality
She loved me, and she hated me

Must be some sort of mysterious love affair
The monster and the girl
Then one night when it was really over
I told her that I really loved her

She acted surprised and said
"That's all right"
She was the girl of my dreams
Girl of my dreams

And all along you knew my secret
I was after love and pretty much desperate
I kissed you once, and I was changed for life
It was paradise, yes, and that's what I like

You were my love
Somewhat
If only I could touch

But once again, I remind you
My love was strong, and only for you
My only wish is that you love me true
You really must get in touch with me soon
You were my Virgin Queen of Rock 'N' Roll

You were the girl of my dreams
Girl of my dreams

    He has nothing to lose or to hide. Honest true emotions..

    Hello people,
    I know this is sort of advertising but i don't really know how to get music out on the internet. My two favorite artists are Daniel Johnston and The Beatles. I'm a young song writer who gets a lot of inspiration from the two and have songs on my youtube channel that i would like to say are daniel johnston esque but i can't compare. If you could give me songs "caving in" "walk away" and "grey sky falling" a listen and a comment i would love! they're on my channel.

  39. T.... ....

    oh ok. sorry. no clue.

  40. a.... ....

    The song that would come after girl of my dreams on the album.

  41. T.... ....

    First, what the hell does "In alignment with" mean?

  42. a.... ....

    would you like to re-read my comment over and then leave me a comment that makes sense? Thank you

  43. T.... ....

  44. T.... ....

    posted on my 11th birthday

  45. a.... ....

  46. K.... T....
