Dreaming
Last night as I lay dreaming,
I saw you dear,
And tears came streaming,
It seemed like old times,
When we were so in love,
And life was like a rhyme,
Chorus:
Oh, how I miss you darling,
Oh, how I miss your cheer,
And I miss you still-
even thou it has been years.
I still long to hear your voice,
And hear you whisper in my ear.
I still long for you to hold me tight
And lie beside me every night.
I could see all our favorite places,
Oh how I long to go again.
And all our friends were there,
Just like they had been back then.
It all seemed so real-
But when I awoke, nothing mattered
My dream was shattered.
I was all alone, my darling,
And you were gone.
Chorus:
Oh, how I miss you darling,
Oh, how I miss your cheer,
And I miss you still-
Even thou it has been years.
I still long to hear your voice,
And hear you whisper in my ear,
I still long for you to hold me tight,
And lie beside me every night.
I often wonder in my heart
If you ever think of me-
And the love that we shared for so long,
That will forever be.
Is it possible to go back in time?
Against all reason?
Agaisnt all rhyme?
And start all over again,
In a place where we've already been?
