My Ideal

Long ago my heart and mind
Got together and designed
The wonderful girl for me
Oh  what a fantasy
Though the ideal of my heart
Can't be ordered à la carte
I wonder if she will be
Always a fantasy
Will I ever find
The girl in my mind
The one who is my ideal
Maybe she's a dream
And yet she might be
Just around the corner
Waiting for me
Will I recognise
A light in her eyes
That no other eyes reveal
Or will I pass her by
And never even know
That she was my ideal
Will I recognise
A light in her eyes
That no other eyes reveal
Or will I pass her by
And never even know
That she is my ideal
