in my mind there is a house in a small forest grove made of cherry logs and chimney smoke is always pourin from the stove in my mind you re there sometimes dancin with a glass of wine laughin as i come to join you under the dim living room light but it is only in my mind in my mind love was easy a dreamy happy ending full of passion never fleeting full of feeling and surprise in my mind love was unchanging every demand was worth meeting every bad day worth defeating love made every wrong seem right but it was only in my mind in my mind you forgave me for all of my mistakes for being sad and selfish for the loneliness i create in my mind i got better i was more thoughtful of others never judgmental or stubborn always gracious giving and kind but it was only in my mind in my mind life was a road without any turns every chance was given no hard lessons to be learned and in my mind i had the answers every dream was within sight every heartache could be mended happiness came with time but it was only in my mind yes it was only in my mind
