I’m reminded late at night
Of exactly what it was like
To be holding you tight
Shouldn’t have ever let go
This isn’t what we wanted
And I just feel so haunted
My friends could say I’ve lost it
But what would they know?
They don’t know what it’s like
To dream of a lover’s eyes
You can no longer look into
And I have nothing to hold
I have nowhere to go
When I can’t run to you
I’ve dreamt of you
So, what should I do
With this?
I see you now and then
You’re hanging with our friends
It’s like I’m hitting a dead end
Everywhere I go
I hate acting like I’m fine
When I’m wishing you were mine
And that I wasn’t wasting time
Being all alone
Wish I didn’t know what it’s like
To dream of a lover’s eyes
I can no longer look into
And I need something to hold
I have nowhere to go
When I can’t run to you
I’ve dreamt of you
What should I do
With this?
I wish/ I could kiss/ your lips/ give this/ a moment/ to fix/ itself
I would never ask for anything else
Do you know what it’s like
To dream of a lover’s eyes
You can no longer look into?
(are those eyes mine?)
And I have nothing to hold
I have nowhere to go
When I can not run to you
(are you still mine?)
I’ve dreamt of you
What should I do
Don’t know what to do
With this
What should we do
With this
