i weave my hands through a spider silk dress
as the scent of new leather calms my senses
i look over to see a familiar mop of brown hair
and being to wonder what i'm doing there
darkness is falling and the violets outside are glowing
i look up and at the same time, it's snowing
nothin can really be what it seems
and i begin to wonder if its all just a dream
he starts up the car and shoots me a half smile
switching on the radio for a while
soft melodies drift through the car and i'm tempted to sing
and just as my favorite song comes on, it brings on a change of scene
the sheets are cotton but i'm wearing lace
and i can't see anything outside of his face
i never really thought something like this could be
i never thought he could love someone like me
after a moment, everything changes again
different from what others have been
he pulls out a chair and helps me in
and i thank him for his kindness with a grin
the lights from the fireflies are dimming over time
we sit there breathing hope and drinking wine
he leans in and touches my lips with his
i almost pull back from the surprise it is
everything melts into darkness as my eyes open and for the first time
i wonder what it would be like if he was mine
but after all it was just a dream
and didn't mean anything
i could smell his cologne hanging in the air
none of this is fair
because i just want to go back to sleep
