Verse 1:
C
This time, I'm writing to you in a song
                                                                     F
'cause songs can travel over walls, across great spaces and through time
          G
A little song
            C
To say, "I love you"

Verse 2:
C
You know I know you've tried to reach me in my dreams
                                               F
But we could only speak in broken lines of poetry
           G
It was so easy
           C
Because I love you

Chorus:
                 Am Am/G Am Am/C Am
Love is just a dream
              F
A beautiful dream
                         Am Am/G Am Am/C Am
And time has robbed us blind
                       G     G7
To all these precious moments

Interlude:
   C                                                           F         G              C

E|--------------------3----------------------------------------1---1-1-2-3----------------|

Chorus:
                 Am Am/G Am Am/C Am
Love is just a dream
              F
A beautiful dream
                         Am Am/G Am Am/C Am
And time has robbed us blind
                       G     G7
To all these precious moments

Verse 3:
C
Golden rings upon your fingers, shiny things that linger
                          F
I've had to let them all go
              G
But still I know
        C
That I love you
