many dreams fill within my head
many dreams that are soooo real to me
too late to follow
to late to be
for what was meant for me
yet many create me

I woke up from a dream
I remember the last thing I did
was that ,I gave it up

now I face my regrets
I gave up love just to be set free
of the pain I felt from an empty soul
that caused great misery

now I feel much more emptiness
than before
I find my pillow soaking wet
from all the tears that were set free
from the heart ache and the misery
of learning what I just did

my heart now resting in my throat
I try to catch my breath
I try to breathe
but I find no relief
my heart lies without a beat

then I wake up again from that dream
that i thought i woke up from
and I realize my regret was just an awful dream
of what was eating at my heart
of what life would be
if you were not with me

a wake up call
this awful dream was
i never felt lonlier than this..

baby I never want to wake up without you in my life
ever again even in my dreams
baby please hurry home and calm this racing heart of mine from this awful dream

I am so glad it was just a dream
other wise my tears would of created a flood
and forever the world
would be crying along with me
as they hear my painful silent screams
of the bad choice I made
in giving up on the only dream i believe in
and that is
YOU..
