[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
G
I was a daisy, white and true
B
and you were a violet, wild and blue
C
And we danced
G
in the springtime air.
[Verse 2]
G
I was an oak tree, old and wise
B
and you were the field in which I lied
C
and we grew together
G
forever tangled in the dirt.
[Chorus]
C G
But of all the things I could be, I want to be with you ou ou ou ou.
C
And of all the dreams I could dream
G
I want to dream of you ou ou ou ou.
Am D G
[Verse 3]
G
I was a firefly on a southern summer night.
B
And you were the child drawn into my light
C
You finally caught me
G
and kept me in your favorite glass jar.
[Verse 4]
G
I was a traveller in search of gold
B
and you were my companion in the open road
C
We shared a path
G
that only stars could make.
[Chorus]
C G
But of all the things I could be, I want to be with you ou ou ou ou.
C
And of all the dreams I could dream
G
I want to dream of you ou ou ou ou.
Am D G
[Verse 5]
G
I was a poet, alone with my thoughts
B
and you were my poems, all I got
C
You shared my stories
G
long after I was gone.
[Verse 6]
G
I was the moon, full of light
B
and you were the wolf, howling at the night
C
You waited for me
G
at every setting sun.
[Chorus]
C G
But of all the things I could be, I want to be with you ou ou ou ou.
C
And of all the dreams I could dream
G
I want to dream of you ou ou ou ou.
C G
Yeah, of all the things I could be, I want to be with you ou ou ou ou.
C
And of all the dreams I dream
G
my favorite one is you ou ou ou ou.
Am D
Cause you are
Am D
You are
Am D G
You are the one I want.
