Whatever happened
To the teenage romance
Is it hidden in a tacky magazine
Everybody´s talking
Saying trash is neat
You think it´s good fun
But it´s never that free
Who is the man of the moment
Does his image stand ten feet tall
Or is he just a cardboard hero
Staring down at you from your wall

You can dream but you can´t touch
You can dream but not too much
You can dream but you can´t touch
You can dream but not too much

Friday night
Out on the town
It´s a special date
First time around
You read all about the story book romance
He stands there waiting
And you want to hold his hand
Saturday
You´re broken down
Your heart is lying somewhere
Is it lost or found

You can dream but you can´t touch
You can dream but not too much
You can dream but you can´t touch
If this is love it´s not enough

You can dream but you can´t touch
You can dream but not too much
You can dream but you can´t touch
You want a love that costs too much
You can dream but you can´t touch
If this is love it´s not enough
You can dream of tender touch
Don´t let your heart be lost to love
