Dreams

There was a time when I was young
And life stretched out before me
I dreamt of love, a perfect match
Someone who would adore me

I pictured just how it would be
This life that we would build
With happy home and family
Each dream would be fulfilled

But life is complex, I have found
The choices unforeseen
It's twists and turns unfathomed
Wreak havoc of our dreams

Yet even though the life I have
Is miles from what I planned
I find it's been a good life
With you to take my hand

All the tears and arguments
The troubles we've been through
Mean little, for I've realized
The dream I dreamt was you
