Question
Hello!

     I have been having a hard time trying to figure out a song. I think the title is : "You're my fantasy", I don't know who the singer was. The song goes like : You are my fantasy.... You touched the best of me, and I never loved so honestly..... I fantasize again.

Bridge:
     Seeing through the lies that my lonely heart fantasize again....

I think it's a 70s - 80's song. It's a mellow song of a pathetic guy.  

Answer
Dear Gracie,

FANTASY is the title of the song written by singer-songwriter GERARD KENNY. GERARD, who hailed from New York City is best remembered for the song I COULD BE SO GOOD FOR YOU, which was used as the main theme for the British TV series MINDER, which ran from 1979 to 1994. He also co-wrote the 1980 Barry Manilow hit I MADE IT THROUGH THE RAIN. FANTASY is from his 1980 album LIVING IN MUSIC which also contains his follow-up hit GETTING TO KNOW EACH OTHER.

Maraming salamat po!!
