I'Ll See You In My Dreams

Like a bird without a sky, like a fish without a sea, like a tree without leaves, like a mountain spring that has run dry, grief is the presence of love now gone, I see you in my dreams from midnight on, reluctantly awakening with morning bird song, in their chorus I hear you say be strong, like a planet without a sun to orbit, like a puzzle piece that just won't fit, like a house without windows or doors, like a love story without amore, grief is the company that I now keep, for I shall never tire of tears to weep, and cursing the Reaper who's soul did sweep, and looking forward to being with you when I sleep.
