Lately I have caught myself still thinking
Of someone that I haven't seen in years
I lose myself in my imagination
And pretty soon I find myself in tears
Funny how a gal goes right on hopin'
Even after years of hope is gone
I know by now I've faded from his memory
But in my heart his memory's still so strong

I can tell myself that he still thinks about me
And find some comfort thinking that it's true
Right here within my own imagination
I can make him whisper I love you

After all this time I should be over
The heartaches that one time caused such pain
And by this time I should have found a new love
But years have not extinguished all the flames
So I'll go right on living with his memory
Even if it's just for my heart's sake
For as long as I have my imagination
I've got a hope that no one else can take.

I can tell myself that he still thinks about me
And find some comfort thinking that it's true
Right here within my own imagination
I can make him whisper I love you
