I would settle for an impersonation of you:

A smile that differs a little

Brown eyes instead of blue

They don't have to look the same

(God forbid they share your name)

A simple resemblance will do

I don't want them to play guitar

Or leave footprints in my car

These things--they can't take away from you

I would settle for an impersonation of you:

A smile that differs a little

Brown eyes instead of blue

I am tired of these nightmares

And thе good dreams never comе true

But I would rather have nightmares

When all of my good dreams are of you
