Across the schoolyard I saw this girl
She looked like an angel from another world
I couldn't take my eyes off her - What was her name?
From that moment on, things would never be the same

I asked a few questions
I found out her name
I told a few friends
They were really entertained

My friends told her friends
Then they dragged us together
I was so shy
I was too afraid to tell her...

[CHORUS]
Sandra...
I LOVE YOU
And I need to always be with you
Sandra...
I'm dreaming of you
I need to hold you every single day

A few days later I was sitting on a bus
I looked out the window and she was on another
She turned her head and then our eyes met
I gave a little wave
We were laughing - I won't forget

She was perfect - Nothing could be better
That was when I... wrote her a letter
I gave it to someone that could get it to her
Then I waited for a while, until I heard from her

[CHORUS]
Sandra...
I LOVE YOU
And I need to always be with you
Sandra...
I'm dreaming of you
I need to hold you every single day

She said she was interested but I was too shy
But at the same time - without her I would die
I started to pester her then she got annoyed
My needy behaviour - a relationship destroyed

I spent all my evenings listening to songs
Dreaming how it might have been if things weren't so wrong
I tried to move on but I couldn't forget
So many feelings - sadness, love and regret

[CHORUS]
Sandra...
I LOVE YOU
Though I'm never going to be with you
Sandra...
I'm still dreaming of you
But now there's nothing - left to say
