It's been a while
But I'll give it a try or I'll
Die trying

Hand in hand
Together we stand
In a little town I know

We smile and laugh
As if by chance
You finally were mine

Surrounded in a haze
In that delicious phase
Of pure and utter bliss

We walk down streets
I could hardly breathe
As your hand squeezed mine

I look to your face
But it seemed out of place
For I can not recognize you

I'm happy all the same
Every bit tame
Unlike the last dream I had

But perhaps it wasn't you
It seemed so true
When I dreamt it that night

I swore I woke smiling
Desperately filing
That dream into memory
To the one that never was not the one that should've been
