I cried, I dreamed, I wished on every star
 But nothin' I'd do got me closer to you
 So I locked all my feeling inside

 Then one night across a crowded room
 You looked my way, your eyes held something new
 You walked right up to me and smiled tenderly
 And your words came as such a surprise

 Well how was I to know
 You never let it show
 What a beauty like you might see
 In a poor boy like me
 How could I have seen
 You walk out of my dreams
 Shine your light on my sleepin' heart
 And into my soul
 How was I to know

 You took my hand and led me out the door
 We talked and we laughed
 'Bout all the times before
 When two lonely people so much in love
 Passed like ships in the night

 Well how was I to know
 You never let it show
 What a beauty like you might see
 In a poor boy like me
 How could I have seen
 You walk out of my dreams
 Shine your light on my sleepin' heart
 And into my soul
 How was I to know

 How could I have seen
 You walk out of my dreams
 Shine your light on my sleepin' heart
 And into my soul
 How was I to know

 Oooh
 Oooh
 Ooooooooh Oh Oh
