My Ideal

My Ideal - Dinah Washington

Will I ever find the boy in my mind

The one who is my ideal

Maybe he's a dream

And yet he might be

Just around the corner waiting for me

Will I recognise the light in his eyes

That no other eyes reveal

Or will I pass him by

And never even know that he is my ideal

Or maybe he's a dream

And yet he might be

Just around the corner waiting for me

Lord

Will I recognise the light in his eyes

That no other eyes reveal

Although he may be late

I trust in fate

And so I wait for my ideal

I wait for my ideal
