Only In My Dreams

Only in my dreams, could someone like you
come along.
Only in my dreams, could someone take
away the wrong.

It couldn’t be reality, I cannot 
be awake.
I’m so afraid to open 
my eyes.
Afraid my heart will break.

Break in two when I realize
that you’re not really here,
And how it will feel to want so badly 
to be able to hold you near.

The thought of waking up to your
warm and gentle touch
makes me know that deep inside,
I need you here so much.

I want to wake daily and be able to look
into loving eyes.
I want this again for the rest of my life,.. until
the day I die.

So, until the time that I am sure that 
I am not asleep,
I’ll lay here in my dream state, and you,
I’ll be able to keep.
