When I First Saw You

When i first saw you
Original DreamGirls

When I first saw you, I said "Oh my"
I said "oh my, that's a dream, that's a dream"
I needed a dream when it all seemed to go bad
Then I found you and I have had the most beautiful dreams
Any man's ever had

When I first saw you, I said "oh my
Oh my, that's my dream, that's my dream"
I needed a dream to make me strong
You are the only reason I had to go on

You are my dream, all the things I'll never knew
You are my dream who could believe they could ever come true
And who would believe, the world would believe in my dreams too

THERE COMES time when a child got's to grow
There comes a time when a woman has to go
Mama said I am special she said I got to move
I am justice as good I am even better then
That's what she would say
That's what she would say
Sign me to say
Sign me to say
Sign me to say
And am going to shein
And am going to shein
You are my dream
Knowing I've got dreams of my own
All the things I could never be
Dreams you never known
They never take my dream from me
When I first saw you, I said "Oh my"
Oh my
That's my dream
