The Temptations
Just My Imagination (Running Away with Me)
Each day through my window
I watch him as he passes by
I say to myself
"He's such a lovely guy"
To have a boy like him
Is truly a dream come true
Out of all the fellas in the world
He belongs to me
But it was just my imagination
(Once again)
Runnin' away with me, yeah
It was just my imagination
Runnin' away with me, ooh...
Soon we'll be married and raise a family
(Oh, boy)
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
For too real it all seems
But it was just my imagination
Once again
Runnin' away with me, yeah
It was just my imagination
Runnin' away with me
Tell you about it
But it was just my imagination
Once again
Runnin' away with me, yeah
It was just my imagination
Runnin' away with mе
Oh, it's all in my mind
(Ah...)
Is it just my imagination
Every night on my knees I pray
"Dear Lord, oh, won't you hear my plеa
Don't ever let another
Take his love from me"
Or I will surely die
His love, love is heavenly
When his arms enfold me
I hear a tender rhapsody
But in reality
He doesn't even know me
(Just my imagination)
Could this be a dream
Runnin' away with me
Can't seem to forget it
Just my imagination
Runnin', runnin' away with me
(Runnin' away with me)
Hey-hey
Just my imagination
Hey, yeah
Runnin' away with me
It's all in my mind
Just my imagination
Runnin'
(Runnin' away with me)
(Runnin', runnin')
Away with me
Just my imagination
Every night on my knees I pray
Runnin' away with me
Dear Lord, hear my plea
It was just my imagination
(Just my imagination)
Oh, baby
(Runnin' away with me)
(Runnin', runnin')
Oh, it seems so real...
