At night when I am dreaming
when you come to lie next to me
and I say that I want you
and you tell me it just can't be
I wake up and smell your breath
your soft scent lingers in the room
and quickly fades to reveal
the darkness of this old tomb
I feel nothing when I’m awake
the pain and longing I just can’t take
come back to me in the night my dear
come back and take away all these tears.
When I sleep, that’s when you return
In my dreams, my dreams so real
I can toss away this old mask
and have a dream of you that lasts.
Sleep, sleep you must return
Deep, Deep I must dream
I'll take enough of these this time
and dream a dream of you that's mine
