The Temptations
"Just My Imagination (Running Away With Me)"

Each day through my window, I watch her as she passes by
I say to myself, "You're such a lucky guy
To have a girl like her is truly a dream come true
Out of all the fellas in the world, she belongs to you

But it was just my imagination,
Running away with me
It was just my imagination
Running away with me

Soon we'll be married and raise a family,
With a cozy little home out in the country
With two children maybe three,
I tell you I can visualize it all,
This couldn't be a dream
Far too real it all seems

But it was just my imagination (once again)
Running away with me
I tell you it was just my imagination
Running away with me

Every night on my knees I pray
"Dear Lord, hear my plea,
Don't ever let another take her love from me
Or I will surely die"
Her love is heavenly
When her arms enfold me,
I hear a tender rhapsody
But in reality, she doesn't even know me.

But it was just my imagination (once again),
Running away with me
I tell you it was just my imagination
running away with me

(I've never met her but I can't forget her)
Just my imagination (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Running away with me
Just my imagination
Running away with me
