Dream of a Lifetime
Eternal Love's Melody: Dream of a Lifetime by The Flamingos
Lyrics
You're the dream of a lifetime
You represent the ideal, a dream that lasts a lifetime.
Too sweet to tell it all things right
Your sweetness is too profound to express fully through words.
You're everything I ever hoped for
You embody everything I have ever wished for or desired.
Sweetheart, will you be mine
Expressing a desire for a romantic commitment, asking if you will be mine.
You're the dream of a lifetime
Reiteration of the idea that you are a dream that lasts a lifetime.
With voice like mission bells that chime
Describing the enchanting quality of your voice, reminiscent of mission bells.
And eyes that grow in sweet surrender
Your eyes express a sweet surrender, and your lips are as sweet as wine.
Two lips are sweet as wine
Emphasizing the sweetness of your lips and the romantic imagery associated with wine.
Heaven must have sent you
Suggesting a belief that you were sent from heaven to alleviate loneliness.
Dear, when I was feeling lonely, sad and blue
Recalling a time of loneliness and sadness, expressing a desire for companionship.
Will you be my lover, I don't want another
Asking for a romantic commitment, expressing exclusivity.
Please believe me, do
Reassuring the sincerity of the request and asking for trust.
You're the dream of a lifetime
Reaffirmation that you are a dream with transformative power.
You'll change the autumn days to spring
Belief that being with you will bring positive change, turning difficult times into joyful ones.
With you my life would be complete, dear
Expressing completeness with you and a commitment to a fulfilling life together.
My heart will always sing
Declaring that the heart will always sing in the presence of the beloved.
You're the dream of a lifetime
Reiteration that you are a dream with the power to transform seasons and life.
You'll change the autumn days to spring
Repeating the idea of positive change and completeness with you.
With you my life would be complete, dear
Reaffirming that life would be complete with you, and the heart will always sing.
My heart will always sing
Concluding with the everlasting joy and fulfillment found in the presence of the beloved.
