Every night I lie awake
Thinking of the all plans we made
Some were big and some were small
I just wish we could have done it all

I should have seen all of the signs
I should have read between the lines
Of every laugh that hid the pain
And now it will all never be the same

How did it all end up this way
How did we all get so far astray
Unaware and caught offshore
In another winter downpour

You were there when no one was
Without even the slightest fuss
All it would take was a call
And you would smile trough it all

I only want to give back the same
Bring you back and ease your pain
Give you the life that you deserve
Give you everything on this earth

Every night I lie awake
As the day's about to break
I try to think of what you'd say
How I can face another day

And right before I fall asleep
I hear a voice it speaks to me
Live your life to the extreme
I fall asleep and begin to dream

But how did it all end up this way
How did we all get so far astray
Close your eyes and dream some more
Through another winter downpour
Our dreams are ours alone to own. ~ RR
