Staring into the darkness, As sleep escapes me once more. I climb out of my lonely bed, And silently pace the floor. Trying not to think of you, But it happens every time. Just when I try to forget for a while, You go drifting across my mind.
The thoughts of you are never far, Your memory lingers there. In every song I hear your name, I see your face everywhere. The sound of your voice rings in my ears, I feel the touch of your hand. I still feel you pulling me tight in your arms, I'm trying to understand.
How did I come to love you so? How can I make this love die? I just can't do the impossible, I don't even want to try. So I crawl back into my lonely bed, And wipe away my tears. I look back on the happy times, To help drive away my fears.
If all I have are dreams of you, Then I'll guard them like a treasure. For every thought I have of you, Can only bring me pleasure. I pull my pillow closer, Pretend it's you by my side; Then drift away in dreams of you, Into this lonely night.
