Just a Dream

In my mind we always were together,

Through all life's troubles and hardships,

We could always depend on one another.

But when I asked you how you really felt,

My heart was broken

Because it was only just a dream.

Just a dream,

Like a lazy summer day.

We'll never be together now.

Except for when I'm asleep,

And my thoughts are free to drift,

Free of this cold, lonely reality,

Together we will always be.

I hear the alarm clock ringing,

Tearing me from dream-filled sleep.

I awake to find

That it was only just a dream.

Just a dream

A dream that will never come true.

Now another lonely day begins

Without you by my side.

And although we're still friends,

It hurts when I look into your kind blue eyes

To know that it was only just a dream.

Just a dream,

Like a lazy summer day.

I stand alone on a high ridge,

The wind whistling all around me,

I wish that it would carry me away.

Far, far away

From my loneliness and all my sorrows.

Far, far away

From all the pain you've caused me.

Far, far away

From this life that is just a dream.

Just a dream,

A dream out of reach.

We'll never be together now.

What will I do without you?

How can I go on?

You've stolen a part of me

That can never be replaced.

You've stolen the part of me

That matters the most of all.

Today I am alone,

Like every day before.

Your memory haunts me,

I see you whenever I shut my eyes,

I hear your voice calling out to me wherever I go.

But it's only just a dream.

Alone again, I lie awake at night,

Listening to the shadows.

They whisper of the darkness that is growing in my heart.

The darkness threatens to overwhelm me;

I'm drowning in a sea of despair.

And even though you're just a dream to my weary heart,

The memory of your warm smile,

Of your soft voice,

Saves me from loosing myself

In the depths of the night.

Why can't I just let you go?

Why can't I let you go

Like a dream that leaves with the coming of dawn?

There are some dreams

That always hang around.

You are one of those;

Just a dream,

A dream that will never go away.

Just a dream,

A dream that I will clutch to my heart forever.

I've tried a thousand times,

I've tried a thousand ways

To get you out of my mind,

To get you out of my heart.

 But no matter what I do,

No matter what they say to me,

I will love you forever.

I cannot help but love you;

It's you who's stolen my heart.

You've stolen the part of me

That matters the most of all.

So, still alone, I lie awake at night,

Dreaming of what will never be.

And although you do not love me,

I will wait for you forever.

If I wait for you, I will always be alone.

I don't mind, though,

Because you're the only one that mattered,

You're the only one I love.

And it was only just a dream.

Just a dream,

A dream that will never come true.
