I thought of you and made believe Until I made you real You played with me You stayed with me And knew just what I'd feel
The lips I never kissed Are lips I can't forget The dress you never wore On the day we never met The name I never whispered As it echoed in my mind The man I never was The sweet thing that's not mine
I drink to you and toast your name A name that I don't know I think of you and see a face A face that never shows
The lips I never kissed Are lips I can't forget The dress you never wore On the day we never met The name I never whispered As it echoed in my mind The man I never was The sweet thing that's not mine
The lights are out, the moon is up I'm calling out my plea But all I hear is my own voice Echo back to me
The lips I never kissed Are lips I can't forget The dress you never wore On the day we never met The name I never whispered As it echoed in my mind The man I never was The sweet thing that's not mine
