Hearts in the bottom of ashtrays

The real world don't seem so bad whenever I'm with you.
All the bad things go away when you say "I'm in love with you."
Close my eyes, let's drift away
I could be asleep for days with you in my mind
Dance until we fall in bed,
"Don't forget these times" she said
But you're so hard to find

And I'll never will forget the very first time that we met,
The perfect girl in every way.
And I've waited for so long, wrote about a thousand songs
And I will see you again.
Until then, I'll make hearts in the bottom of ashtrays.

I keep thinking 'bout the time when I first dreamt of you.
I think I'm running out of time, And I'm scared 'cos I don't know what to do.
I can't wait to fall asleep, I spend my evenings counting sheep
Just to see if you are there.
There's little hope, to which I cling. I wanna touch the real thing
And I will find you somewhere.
