Memories of a place I know
Similarities in this far away view
I close my eyes and pretend its home
I close my eyes and I think of you
Pillows and sheets perfumed with your dreams
Together we fought and shadows we slew
I need your help to fight nightmares it seems
I close my eyes and I think of you
They see a lion, cold and proud
From the start I've seen you true
Kind loneliness you'd not say aloud
I close my eyes and I think of you
Sheets and pillows dampened with tears
Shadows so dark that I cant see through
Lying here in the quiet for what feels like years
I close my eyes and I think of you

Memories of a place I know
Similarities in this far away view
I close my eyes and pretend its home
I close my eyes and I think of you
Pillows and sheets perfumed with your dreams
Together we fought and shadows we slew
I need your help to fight nightmares it seems
I close my eyes and I think of you
They see a lion, cold and proud
From the start I've seen you true
Kind loneliness you'd not say aloud
I close my eyes and I think of you
Sheets and pillows dampened with tears
Shadows so dark that I cant see through
Lying here in the quiet for what feels like years
I close my eyes and I think of you
On nights like this is when I miss you the most. My best friend, you are the home of my heart and my brightest thought in my darkest moments. Even in the summer, its so cold this far North without you.
