Analysis of Everything I've Ever Dreamed
From early life to later years I have fancied good.
Everything I've ever dreamed you have understood.
From early life to later years I have fancied grace.
Everything I've ever dreamed you became best-case.
From early life to later years I have fancied peace.
Everything I've ever dreamed you sought to increase.
From early life to later years I have fancied bliss.
Everything I've ever dreamed you gave with a kiss.
From early life to later years I have fancied care.
Everything I've ever dreamed you made bill of fare.
From early life to later years I have fancied love.
Everything I've ever dreamed you met hand-in-glove.
From early life to later years I have fancied joy.
Everything I've ever dreamed you wanted to buoy.
From early life to later years I have fancied you.
Everything I've ever dreamed you have made come true.
