I'm standing in the backyard, listening to the party inside Tonight I'm drinking in the forgiveness this life provides The scars we carry remain but the pain slips away it seems 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 that he's ever seen Oh won't you baby be in my book of dreams Woahhh won't you, won't you baby Woah baby, hmm hmm hmm In the darkness my fingers slip across your skin I feel your sweet reply, the room fades away and 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 Woah won't you baby be in my book of dreams Come on baby will you be in my book of dreams Oh won't you baby be in my book of dreams
