Happy In My Sleep

I have a place in my dreams Where only she and I can be And when we're there it seems She knows everything about me I talk to her about my lies And share all my secrets She answers only with her eyes Telling me to let go of regrets I ask her questions about death And why God took her away She only takes in a deep breath And with her eyes says, "you'll know someday" She walks through a garden of flowers Outside our cozy place Then sits by a brook for hours Where we both just stare out into space I feel so happy and at peace Just sitting there holding the hand Of my beautiful angel... my neice Knowing someday I'll understand My peace fades away As I awake and weep I try to hurry through my day So I can be happy again in my sleep.
