In My Dream

Looking in my head as I fall 
deep asleep 
I ask myself why you always 
show in my dream 
I see your face that haunts me 
in this dream 
I wish your image would just 
fade away 
The night is faded away but I'm 
still trapped inside this dream 
I can not wake from and you 
looked back at me as I once did 
long ago to you 
With these tears streaming 
from my eyes with full of 
emotion 
I felt good and more alive i'll 
always know I'm safe as my 
heart inside stays strong and 
steady 
My screams all sounded the 
same and all that is left is the 
ghost of your face 
Even tho I watched you vanish 
from this life -still when I sleep 
i'll always see you in my 
dreams
