As I close my eyes tonight
I silently utter a wish
That once again
You'll visit me in my dreams
The only place I want to be
For in there I get to look you in the eye
Without thinking of what will be
Only living in the moment of you and me
As I go in deeper
I get to see
The beauty of you and me
Ah, I feel so happy
Pictures of us start to bloom
Colors popping on canvas
With no hands of a painter
Only sleight of truth
We walk in that familiar street
Enjoying the scent of the after-rain
You hold my warm hand
Saying it's okay with a smile
Laughing with no care
Hearts alight in giddiness
You tell me of your favorite memories
Without holding back, you do
Then you'll call me by my name
It sounds all too pure and sweet
I take in a deep breath
Taking it all in me
Carrying the smell of your cologne
The sound of your gentle voice
The feel of your hand in mine
The warmth of your soul
Before the blinding light comes
One last look of the painting
Dreams don't last long
The nightmare always creeps in
As I open my eyes
I silently utter a wish
That once again
I'll forget the nightmare of reality
