The Only Time I'm Happy - Mono Version

I just want to be happy
To love and be loved by you
But the only time I'm happy
Is when I dream of you each night
'Cause that's the only time
You hold me tight in my dreams
Is the only time your love is mine

Each time you're near
Something happens to my heart
You make you feel so unwanted dear
And it pains my poor heart

If I could feel your sweet caress
Then I'd know true happiness
But the only time I'm happy
Is when I dream of you each night

'Cause that's the only time
You hold me tight in my dreams
Is the only time your love is mine

To me you'll never have
Nothing kind or sweet to say
Than my whole day
To seem too sadly waste away

But when the day ends
All my happiness begins
But the only time I'm happy
Is when I dream of you each night

'Cause that's the only time
You hold me tightly in my dreams
Is the only time your love is mine

Life pasts each day
Leaving loneliness in my heart
You make you feel so unneeded
And it hurts my poor heart

But there's nothing I'd rather do
Than to be happy loving you
But the only time I'm happy
Is when I dream of you each night

'Cause that's the only time
You hold me tightly in my dreams
Is the only time your love is mine
