lyrics

I saw her standing in the shadows from the window of my room;
And all the early summer blossoms could've been her sweet perfume;
And then I turned around in wonder when she touched me on the sleeve;
My mind is reeling, I can't tell you – is this a real-life fantasy
Or is it only make believe?

I saw her dancing in the moonlight and I followed where she led;
Her footsteps light upon the grass, her hair a halo 'round her head.
There was a magic in her music, like the songs the sirens weave;
My mind is reeling, I can't tell you – is this a real-life fantasy?
Or is it only make believe?

When I awoke at dawn this morning, I was lying in my bed,
And all the midnight dreams I'd had were whirling circles through my head.
Her perfume's fragrance on the pillow told me I'd find no reprieve,
My mind is reeling, I can't tell you – is this a real-life fantasy?
Or is it only make believe?

about

Pete Grubbs Brookville, Pennsylvania

I started performing music when I was 6, turned pro at 20ish & spent well over 30 years tracking down as many gigs a month as possible.

Oddly enough, one of their favorite haunts appears to be in collections of my songs--you'll find a bit of each on every track. ... more
