In Sleep

I lay awake at night and pray
Not to see the light of day
I wonder how to behave right

He has left me such a mess
Counting to protest
Mind can't get no rest

Fast asleep where I keep my memories
He's calling me, out in dreams he visits me
What will be? Will I see him again soon?

Why am I so terrified of waking
He's gone and I feel I've been forsaken
In sleep is the only place I get to see him
Get to love him

The scenes, a city after dawn
Becomes a field of corn
I've had this one before

Fast asleep where I keep my memories
He's calling me, out in dreams he visits me
What will be? Will I see him again soon?

Why am I so terrified of waking
He's gone and I feel I've been forsaken
In sleep is the only place I get to see him
Get to love him

And I know when the story ends
The one that's in my head
Then I'll be alone again

Why am I so terrified of waking
He's gone and I feel I've been forsaken
In sleep is the only place I get to see him
Get to love him

Why am I so terrified of waking
He's gone and I feel I've been forsaken
In sleep is the only place I get to see him
I get to love him, be with him
I love him, I love him, I love him
