I saw your face again last night

Your soft voice spoke out to me

I couldn’t feel you in my arms

You were only in my dream

The things you said late last night

So clear within my head

Once again after another night

I woke alone in my lonely bed

Some people call them nightmares

With you it could never be

I’m so complete in the midst of my sleep

When I have you next to me

I see your smiling face

Telling me it’s all ok

Then when I awake there's an empty space

I’m by myself for another day

I worked hard to show the veins in my arms

But they never came through for you

I wasn’t always by your side

That was something I couldn’t do

But I thought you knew what you meant to me

I guess I thought too much

Now here I sit alone with myself

Once again, missing your touch

Each day I wander through this life

Pointless directions, wasting my time

I can't see any future

I live in this past of mine

Each night as I forget to breathe

I hope it's you I find

Oh how my slumber deceives

Taking me back in time

 I work hard on your memory

I try with all my might to let it go

Still, you’re in my dreams every night

It’s just something I can’t control
