sleep that once eluded me
begins to lure me near
an idea that once i longed for
now brings me only fear
for once upon a time
long ago i met a man
i fell helplessly in love
a feeling few understand
every night i dream of him
holding me in his arms
I feel the safety and the happiness
while at the mercy of his charm
he haunts my world
that amazing man
and i do not shed a tear
until morning comes
and i wake up
and he's no longer here
