Time

I've felt the warmth of the sun
And the cool summer rain
But nothing compares
To the touch of your hand

You're gone for the moment
No time for goodbyes
Only sleep gives me comfort
Only dreams gives me time

To say what I wanted
A chance to be free
From the pain and the heartache
When you're next to me

And your voice and your touch
Becomes more than a dream
And you remind each day
As time passes away
You're forever with me
