Goodnight Babe

As I pull out my retainer
And put it in the container
I am ready for bed
And I lay down my head

I hope to dream of you
Every thought of us can come true
And in my dream
Everything is what it may seem

I want this dream to come true
And between me and you
We can live carefree
Just you and me

Forever in a world
That is not real
This is how I feel
But sooner or later i have to wake up
And I will feel sad
Because I am not with you

For you I had fell
But this I am scared to tell
You won't ever know how i feel
Everything i say tonight is real

So as I lay down my head
And drift off in my bed
I will dream of you
And my every wish will come true

(On my myspace also)
