[Verse 1]
Hand me my guitar, there's a song that I was singing
Back when I was young and I had a good time
Looking for love in the misty waters
Of the seas that roll in a young girl's mind

[Chorus]
Only in shadows and lonely at night
She turns to you softly, you turn on the light
You use her and abuse her and you know it ain't right
To treat one who loves you so badly
When she's doing the best that she can
You know she's doing the best that she can

[Verse 2]
Do you believe in dreams? Do you believe in dreamers?
Hoping that you'll find what you're looking for
You don't have to worry 'cause there's a bright tomorrow
In the dreams that roll in a young girl's mind

[Chorus]
Only in shadows and lonely at night
She turns to you softly, you turn on the light
You use her and abuse her and you know it ain't right
To treat one who loves you so badly
When she's doing the best that she can
You know she's doing the best that she can
[Verse 3]
So hand me my guitar, there's a song that I was singing
Back when I was young and I had a good time
Looking for love in the misty waters
Of the seas that roll in a young girl's mind
Of the seas that roll in a young girl's mind
