I Hold My Pillow Tight

I went to bed holding my pillow tight
wishing I had you to hold me last night
I pictured you right next to me
feeling the warmth of your body

And when I fell asleep the dreams flowed in
I was happy and smiling once again
In my dream we loved each like before
only the feelings were stronger and you hugged me much more

It felt good, but in a way made me a little sad
to know I would wake up to reality to something I no longer have
It brought a tear running down my cheek
to think of everything that happened just this past week

The fights and the screams came back to my mind
And I realized that this would be our last time
Its true we love each other so
But truth in the matter it was best we let things go

So now every night since then
I hold my pillow tight just trying to pretend
that everything is fine and I'm OK
but truth is I'm hurting since you went away
