Analysis of In My Dreams
In my dreams I can still feel the warmth of
your breath
In my dreams I can still see your face
but when I awake nothing,just this big empty
place.
In my dreams it's still the same
In my dreams our love is strong and it's here
I want to stay
but when I awake those things fade away.
In my dreams your smile is brighter than the sun
In my dreams staring deep in your eyes is
where my only happiness does exist
but when I awake the pain I live with is
just too strong to list.
To wake no more is my dream, in my dreams is
where I want to remain.
