Kisses after Nightmares

Each sundown,
you take over my thoughts.
Tossing and turning
Thinking of what I've lost.

In the darkness of my mind,
you've left your silhouette behind.
For me to see and cherish every night
what I once had, and your words will recite.

A black and white rerun
of you and I.
You follow me to the door,
and kiss me goodbye.

I drive home
with you on my mind,
and how I didn't want to leave.
Forever I would stay behind.

But all alone,
I leave you
standing in the dark.
Hoping you miss me too.

And another time
flashes before my eyes.
Looking up at the night sky.
and then into your beautiful eyes.

That was the best moment of my life.
And you gave it to me.
Theres no way it was a lie.
I'm sure you'd agree.

But then I wake up to nothing.
No reason to get out of bed.
Nobody to make meel special.
And I dread the day ahead.

I'm a dreamer,
but this is a nightmare.
Please wake me up.
I'm dying inside here.

I close my eyes.
You're nowhere to be found.
You've left me here.
I don't know my way around.

Nobody has wanted me like you did.
Nobody kissed me like you kissed.
Nobody has spoke the words you spoke.
But was this all just a joke?

Becase your care for me suddenly disappered.
And you moved on to better people.
Do you know how much that hurt to see?
Do you understand my jealousy?

I can't just find someone new
right away like you can.
I can't fly away again.
I have to start over with my future, and find a new plan.

Hopefully that one day,
where I can wake up and feel this way again.
Will come sooner than later.
And give me a happy end.

I'll dream forever
about the day.
Where I wake up,
and It'll all be okay.
