My Ideal

Long ago my heart and mind

Got together and designed

The wonderful boy for me,

Oh, what a fantasy

Though the idol of my heart

Can't be ordered à la carte,

I wonder if he will be

Always a fantasy

Will I ever find the boy of my mind

The one who is my ideal?

Maybe he's a dream, and yet he might be

Just around the corner waiting for me

Will I recognize the light in his eyes

That no other eyes reveal?

Or will I pass him by

And never even know that he is my ideal?

Will I ever find the boy of my mind

The one who is my ideal?

Maybe he's a dream, and yet he might be

Just around the corner waiting for me

Will I recognize the light in his eyes

That no other eyes reveal?

Or will I pass him by

And never even know that he is my ideal?
