Girl of My Dreams

Girl of my dreams
You don’t seem me
It’s always you until they turn
Is that 'cause you’re just like everyone else?
All but afraid of yourself
You do it to yourself
I’m in your dream but all I’ll be
Is another figure made of dust
That’s not the only thing that you felt
Is all I can say to myself
I say it to myself
Lift up your eyes
Don’t you know that you’re sleeping?
The day is drifting away, away from you
Though it feeds you at night
It’ll starve in the sunlight
The dream is slipping away, away from you
Girl of my dreams
You can’t heal me
'Cause there is nothing left to touch
If it were real, where would I dwell?
All alone in myself
Staring at myself
I’ll pretend I’m letting you go
Like I ever had you to hold
You’ll be takin', a-takin', a-takin', your leave
Until you wake in my dream
I’ll pretend I’m letting you go
Like I ever had you to hold
You’ll be takin', a-takin', a-takin', your leave
Until you wake in my dream
Lift up your eyes
Don’t you know that you’re sleeping?
The day is drifting away, away from you
Though it feeds you at night
It’ll starve in the sunlight
The dream is slipping away, away from you
