Don't wake me up

by nikki @~~   Sep 2, 2006


You ask me how I'm doing
And I tell you that I'm fine
And we both walk away pretending
You don't know that I was lying

You tell me that you'll be there
And you want to help me out
You swear that you love me
But you know I have my doubts

I must be sleeping
Because I can feel your arms
I must be dreaming
Because I can hear your heart
Don't wake me up
I'll never need more than this
And I would live happily ever after
If this is all there is

You say you're working late
And I don't hear you come home
But there's someone else's scent on you
And I know you weren't alone

And you smile like you mean it
But there's a shadow in your eyes
Someone else's memory
Is hiding there disguised

I must be sleeping
'cuz I swear I feel safe
I must be dreaming,
I think I can see your face
Don't wake me up
I finally feel at home
For the first time in awhile
I know I'm not alone

I think I must be dreaming
Don't ever end this night
Leave me here sleeping
Because you're here and it feels right
Don't wake me up
I can taste your kiss
I can feel you here with me
I'll never need more than this.
And I would say that life is perfect
Even if this is all there is.
