even though it was just a dream the emotions were so vivid I could feel

every gentle touch seemed to be authentic and very real

the sweet smell of your skin still lingers in my sleepy head

the covers are still warm on your side of the bed

I reach out to feel if you are still there

fumbling around in the dark and finding nothing to my dispair

I know you had to leave before I would find myself awake

but as sure as I will sleep you will return, my heart you would not break

I lay here wide awake now thinking wonderful thoughts of you

all the beautiful dreams I would love to have come true

I wonder when you rest if your dreams they are of me

all the places we might travel and all the things that we would see

Maybe tonight in my dreams I will ask you to stay with me forever

because you know as well as I we belong together
