N/A.
From a distant horizon she wandered my way
With so much to give and so little to say
She’s a creature of silence
She’s my imaginary girl
Well she spoke with her eyes, they were filled with despair
Generations of sadness were burning in there
She’s a dream I once had
She’s my imaginary girl
Well I tried to possess her, I tried to hold on
I build wooden fences a thousand miles long
But she was too hot to handle
My imaginary girl
There were so many time I could name you a few
Be there was nothing that she wouldn’t do
There were so many reasons to please
My imaginary girl
But like sweet inspiration she comes and she goes
With each passing hour the mystery grows
I will always be willing to meet
My imaginary girl
Oh yeh
I’m an ordinary man, I’m as greedy as sin
I’m a fool for my sense oh where to begin
To tell of the love that I feel
My imaginary girl
But now winter is here there’s a chill in the air
If I close my eyes I know she’ll be there
I will always be willing to dream
My imaginary girl
Dream my imaginary girl
Dream my imaginary girl
My imaginary girl
Dream my imaginary girl
My imaginary girl
Dream my imaginary girl
My imaginary girl
