In My Dreams



This song has been on my heart for a few months now and when you read the words you will know why. We always wish that our children will find someone to spend their lives with. Someone who will love them and take care of them and appreciate their gifts and try to ignore their faults. I believe that Corey has found that someone and I love her.

In My Dreams
by Debi Smith

In my dreams you're seventeen
and you have curly auburn hair
and when you hold me
your arms are sure
as your skin is young and fair
and when you kiss me
it thrills me
like a flash of lightning in the blue
and I know then
what I know now
how much I love you

But when I open up my eyes
and I see you in the dusk
there's silver in your hair
and your skin is not so lush
and I thank God for those brown eyes
and the times they've seen me through
because I know then
what I know now
how much I love you

In my dreams, son,
you're two years old
and I hold you on my lap
I feel your hair against my cheek
as your head nods off to nap
your finger curl around my hand
and you're breathing sweet and new
and I know then
what I know now
how much I love you

But when I open up my eyes
and see you sitting there
I can't hold you in my lap
or toss you in the air
and those tiny hands
are now a man's
and I hope at fifty two
some sweet woman will love you, dear,
like I love your dad and you
some sweet woman will love you, dear,
like I love your dad and you
