A Midnight Dream-Song

Midnight dreams/
Fill my mind/
With those memories/
Lost in time/
How you held me tight/
When I felt alone/
In slumbering night/
These things are shown/
Hand in hand/
How real you seem/
As we share this dance/
Through a midnight dream/

-Chorus-

In a midnight dream/
I’m never alone/
You’re here with me/
Happy at home/
But day breaks the dawn/
And you can’t be seen/
 there you’ve gone/
With a midnight dream/

-End Chorus-

This house is so empty/
Without you around/
I wonder if you can see/
If you’re looking down/
Did you know I loved you/
And every night I pray/
My dreams will come true/
And this time you’ll stay/
Missing you so much/
I’m coming apart at the seams/
I’ll long for your touch/
Until my midnight dreams/


-Chorus-

Cause in a midnight dream/
You touch my face/
And all this pain seems/
To be erased/
But day breaks the dawn/
And you can’t be seen/
 there you’ve gone/
With a midnight dream/
  
-End Chorus-





Livin’ in my mind/
Back when we were strong/
Wanting back those times/
Before you were gone/
Cause these old eyes/
Can’t see anymore/
Through tears I’ve cried/
Waiting by that door/
But my prayers will come true/
Tonight it seems/
I’ll be leaving with you/
In a midnight dream/

-Chorus-

In a midnight dream/
Your hand in mine/
Forever we will be/
Lost in those times/
And as day breaks the dawn/
I won’t be seen/
I’m finally gone/
With a midnight dream/

-End-
