I'm waking from this dream,
Returning to reality is so bittersweet,
But I open my eyes and the illusion is fading,
Slipping away.
It was just within reach,
Yet so far.
I lay here all alone one more.
I dreamed you were beside me,
You were there once again,
As if you had never left and
I remember wanting to say, asking you not to go
But I know that was impossible then...
You say "I can't stay here" as my damp eyes open.
The sunshines on the bleak horizon.
It's just another day.
I look out at the dimly lit buildings
And think of you.
Am I imagining you here,
Right next to me?
Your eyes catch my own,
I look fleetingly,
Before I realize you're really there.
I dreamed you'd be beside me,
That we would meet again.
You eyes glisten, your tears are falling.
I know you have not forgotten the past that
We shared as I quietly watch you wipe your tears away
Although I've found you,
I know this meeting will not last.
I have to let go continue finding your way,
Though I will miss you.
It's time to wake from this dream
