"Why Must I Dream?"

I cannot close my eyes at night,
and lay my heart to rest.
Or bury all my memories
that keep me in distress.

Why must I dream each night of you?
See the smile upon your face?
Forever falling deeper in your
arms of warm embrace.

I hide the love that binds me.
in the light of every day.
But when I close my eyes each night.
you steel my heart away.

Why must I dream each night of you,
of times we shared back then?
Your like a ghost that haunts me.
Time and time again.

And when I wake to morning light.
I’ll push you from my mind.
I’ll try to loose your memory ,
fight to let my heart unwind.

Although I know when darkness falls,
and the day has passed me by.
Once more I’ll see your smile,
and the love I try to hide.
