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.
