A
I'm standing in the backyard
Listening to the party inside
Tonight I'm drinkin' in the forgiveness
              D
This life provides
              A
The scars we carry remain but
                        D
the pain slips away it seems
    A                E               A
Oh won't you baby be in my book of dreams

I'm watching you through the window with
your girlfriends from back home
You're showing off your dress, there's
laughter and a toast
From your daddy to the prettiest bride
he's ever seen
Oh won't you, baby, be in my book of dreams?

In the darkness, my fingers slip
across your skin, I feel your sweet reply
The room fades away and suddenly
I'm way up high just holding you to me
As through the window, the moonlight streams
Oh won't you, baby, be in my book of dreams?

Now the ritual begins, 'neath the wedding
garland, we meet as strangers
The dance floor is alive with beauty, mystery,
and danger
We dance out 'neath the stars, ancient light
into the darkening trees
Oh won't you, baby, be in my book of dreams?
