Ooo
Each day through my window I watch her as she passes by.
I say to myself, you're such a lucky guy.
To have a girl like her is truly a dream come true.
Out of all the fellas in the world, she belongs to you.

But it was just my imagination, running away with me.
It was just my imagination, running away with me.

(Soon) Soon we'll be married and raise a family. (Oh, yeah)
A cozy little home out in the country with two children, maybe three.
I tell you, I can visualize it all. This couldn't be a dream, for too real it all seems.

But it was just my imagination, once again.
Running away with me.
Tell you it was just my imagination,
Running away with me.

[Paul:] Every night on my knees I pray.

Dear Lord, hear my plea.
Don't ever let another take her love from me.
Or I will surely die. Hmm

(Her love is) heavenly.
When her arms enfold me.
I hear a tender rhapsody.
But in reality, she doesn't even know me.

Just my imagination, once again.
Running away with me.
Oh, tell you it was just my imagination,
Running away with me.

I never met her but I can't forget her.
Just my imagination,
Ooo yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Running away with me.

Ooo, just my imagination running away with me.
