We were alone last night, pretending wrong was right
Time stood by it seemed, i wish it had been a dream
You said those words again, we were so close again
But its easier to awake from a dream and cry
Than to walk away and say goodbye
To count the years since we've met
So long our lips have been sealed
But nothing can make us forget
When we kiss and how it made us feel
I was afraid last night, until you held me tight
But its easier to awake from a dream and cry
Than to walk away and say goodbye
I was afraid last night, until you held me tight
But its easier to awake from a dream and cry
Than to walk away and say goodbye
I wish it had been a dream, just you and me in a dream
