Every Dream I Dream

A breath of Autumn air,

A scent that says goodbye.

Trees continue standing there,

Colored leaves, they cry.

Memories and music

Are best friends, they never part.

Melodies that graced my ears

When I once held your heart…

…for so long…

A cloud that tumbles by,

Your breath that meets the blue.

What is it about the sky

That makes me think of you?

I’ve listened to the fallen leaves

They’re whispering your name.

Could it be I miss you more,

When I’m the one to blame?

Why do I still recognize

Your face, in every dream I dream?

Be it night or day, I find,

You’re just always on my mind.

It’s just not fair

To miss what was never there.

One day, I’d like to lay

My hand upon your door.

Surprise your lips with mine, and say

“I’d like a thousand more”.

Do you know how much it hurts

To know you’re gone for good?

I’d hate to think you just don’t care
Although, you never could.

Why do I still recognize

Your face, in every dream I dream?

Be it night or day, I find,

You’re just always on my mind.

It’s just not fair

To miss what was never there

I’m your worn out paper cup,

That you emptied, I suppose.
But lying here and looking up,

I can still see up your nose.

It’s so hard to move along,

Take one more step ahead.

Pretend I never did you wrong

You hurt me most instead.

I guess it’s best to never see

Your pretty face again.

But years will pass and I’ll be thinking

I remember when…

Why do I still recognize

Your face, in every dream I dream?

Be it night or day, I find,

You’re just always on my mind.

It’s just not fair

To miss what was never there…
