I Dreamt

As I sat
Barefoot on the grass
In the evening sun
I slipped into a dream

I dreamt
I met a girl
Who was beautiful and fun

I dreamt
I met a girl
That I knew was the one

I dreamt
I found a job
That I loved and enjoyed

I dreamt
I found a job
That fulfilled and employed

I dreamt
I lived a life
With both happiness and sorrow

I dreamt
I lived a life
Full of something for tomorrow

I dreamt
I saw
I came
I did
But most importantly
I lived
