I’m going to curl up and dream of you
and all the things we’ve yet to do
in my dreams I’ll touch your face
and melt into your safe place
I’ll let myself come flooding out
so you can see what I’m about
And when you hold me near
I’ll forget about my fear
I sleep so I can finally go
to a place that doesn’t exist I know
but where my love can finally show
It’s a simple thing in my heart
we’re better together than we are apart
we laugh and we love and we kiss and we smile
and fall deeper in love all the while
In dreams there’s nothing in the way
to drag us apart, day after day
and everything is easy to understand
nothing undermines my sweetest plan
I sleep so I can have your kiss
in a land where I don’t have to miss
your voice, your laugh your gentleness
I’m going to wake up alone in my bed
with thoughts of you running through my head
our love story quickly fades away
and I am forced to go through my day
without knowing your body next to mine
or your laughter to pass the time
and when the day’s end has come and gone
I return to my dreams — always alone
I sleep so I can forget the pain
and to silence the yelling in my brain
So I sleep and sleep and sleep again
