I can see you right beside me   Everytime I close my eyes   And I swear you're looking perfect   In the moonlight of my mind      But am I only dreaming   Tell me, could this be for real   Tell me, tell me, tell me now      [chorus]   We're close, close to perfect   That's what we were   (that's what you say)   In my dreams   We're close, close to perfect   That's how it seems   In my dreams   (in my dreams)      It's hard for me   To say I love you   Simple words are always tough      So hard to say   Too many nightmares   I'd give you shelter with my love      Am I only dreaming   Tell me, could this be for real   Tell me, tell me, tell me now      [chorus] x 2      Tell me, tell me, tell me   While we're only close to perfect
