Lyrics

JUST MY IMAGINATION by Norman Whitfield, Barrett Strong

Each day through my window I watch her as she passes by
I say to myself you're such a lucky guy
To have a girl like her is truly a dream come true
Out of all the fellas in the world she belongs to you
But it was Just my imagination
runnin' away with me
Tell you it was just my imagination runnin' away with me

Soon we'll be married and raise a family (Oh yeah)
Have a cozy little crib out in the country with two children, maybe three
I tell you I can visualize it all, baby
This couldn't be a dream for too real it all seems
But it was Just my imagination once again runnin' way with me
Tell you it was just my imagination runnin' away with me.

Every night on my knees I pray, Dear Lord, Hear my plea
Don't ever let another take her love from me or I will surely die
Her love is heavenly, when her arms enfold me
I hear a tender rhapsody, but in reality she doesn't really know me

Just my imagination once again runnin' way with me
Tell you it was just my imagination runnin' away with me
