Song Lyrics

Each day through my window I watch him as he passes by
I say to myself, "You're such a lucky girl"
To have a boy like him is truly a dream come true
Out of all the girls in the world he belongs to me

[Chorus]
But it was just my imagination runnin' away with me
It was just imagination runnin' away with me

Soon we'll be married and raise a family
Have a cozy little home out in the country with two children, maybe three
I tell you I, I can visualize it all
This couldn't be a dream for too real it all seems

[Chorus]

Every night on my knees I pray, dear Lord, hear my plea
Don't ever let another take his love from me or I will surely die
His love is heavenly when his arms enfold me I hear a tender rhapsody
But in reality he doesn't even know my name, oh what a shame

For it was just my imagination runnin' away with me
And runnin' and runnin'

[Chorus]

Just my imagination
In the windmills of my m ind I would think about him all the time
Just my imagination
But he didn't even know my name, oh what a shame
Well, it was just my imagination
