Mandy Barnett - Dream Too Real to Hold Lyrics

All my life I've held to dreams and fantasy
A dream of one true love and one alone.
And though I never saw her face or felt her touch
I held her in my arms she was my own.

Too many times I've settled for a lover's touch
Someone who would care, someone to hold
Always fearing one that I would love too much
For where would I be found should love grow cold.

They say that when you search for true love you'll never find
The kind of love to touch your very soul
And all at once I turned and I was lost there in your eyes
Awakened by a dream too real to hold.

The feeling that's come over me it scares me half to death
I face my dream although I am awake
And though I'm sure to wake and find a broken heart
I know this is a chance that I must take

I know that you've been hurt for I can hear your silent cries
Calling from the darkness and the cold
Don't you know, you're nothing less than perfect in my eyes.
Although I fear a dream too real to hold.
Is true love a dream too real to hold.
