Under A Dream

Nothing I can say
Standing still like paralysed
As everything fades to grey
When I drown in those eyes

Nothing I can hide
Nothing I can pretend
No words to tell or make another lie

Still afraid you’re not real
Just another dream
Illusion of midnight lullaby under starlight

And I whisper your name
Wishing you to stay
Still saying no word
But you don’t go
’cause you know
You know…

Every sigh, every weep
All the scars beneath the core
You’ve seen them deep
Heal me now, take away from it all

You don’t go as you stay
Taking me home
On the break of the day
You know the pain of that score
Still you aren’t fading away

Drawing for me a new life
Through the bars of yesterday
You heal a poor bleeding heart
All the pain slowly flows away
