There is a moment early in the morning
When my eyes slowly open and I awake
But something has already opened inside of me
Something deep inside has stirred
Where have you gone?
What have I done?
Why do I feel the way I do?
How do I get back to that moment of you?
I fight between reality and what could have been
You, fading away
A ghost of a memory
I toss and turn
For you are a long lost dream
Something so sweet that was never meant to become true
As much as my dream pulls me back to you
Needing to touch and to feel
You are a thought
A Yearning
A ghost of a memory
Where have you gone?
What have I done?
Why do I feel the way I do?
How do I get back to that moment of you?
I fight between reality and what could have been
You, fading away
A ghost of a memory
Instinctively I wish to hold you closer
Wrap you in your velvet blanket
You know, baby blue
I place a kiss on your fragile forehead as I breathe you in
And as I do this you let out a soft sigh
I try to be strong, to not let you see that I’ve already began to cry
In the state of forcibly leaving a dream
Yet still not awake
I hurt.
I cry.
I ache.
Desperately seeking you while I am awake
Wishing things were different
Wishing that I could hold you
And that this was really your fate
Where have you gone?
What have I done?
Why do I feel the way I do?
How do I get back to that moment of you?
I fight between reality and what could have been
You, fading away
A ghost of a memory
Maybe in another life
Perhaps in another time
You will be something else
Besides a tear in my dreams
You won’t just be a ghost of a memory.
