* Had a dream about you baby, had a dream about me and you
Had a dream and woke up crying
Well I can roll but I just can't rock
And the time's going by, tick-tock
For the heart, I just can't love no-one but you

Well I'm high and dry and lonely, I'm as lonely as can be
And I stare out of my window
Well I can play but I just can't win
And the weather's looking dim
For the heart I just can't love no-one but you

** For the heart (I can't love no-one but you)
For the heart (I can't love no-one but you)
For the heart I just can't love no-one but you

** Repeat

* Repeat

** Repeat

** Repeat
Well
** Repeat
Yes,
** Repeat
