My Only Dream

I carry one wish in my heart and mind And it is that you were still alive I love you too much for you to be gone I find myself wishing all night until dawn That I could still see you alive today That's the one thing I constantly pray I love you too much for you to be dead Your face and your moves swirl around in my head I cannot forget you or let you go You were the god of my world majestic, aglow Why is it when people die they never come back Why does this obsession constantly nag Please forgive me that I cannot move on But with your death I was completely undone In my heart and my mind you did not die And I go on telling myself these lies My one dream is that you were still alive It's the only dream I've had since the day you died
