dream of you

I had a dream about you last night

At first I took it as a sign

Some things are better left alone

So I told myself it's fine

Our time was short and sweet and simple

Uncomplicated by the past

Exchanging words in points of quiet

Unaware of who'd talk last

We gelled quickly and in seconds

I thought that I'd known you for years

You'd think we'd have lasted longer

But I wouldn't shed a tear

I had a dream about you last night

Your figure warm and far away

I had a dream about you last night

Eyes shut hoping you'd stay

But I think fondly of our time

Exchanging laughs and songs alike

You were the sugar to my sour

A sheer joy so childlike

And now I see from a distance

I watch you flourish from afar

Sending thoughts and all well wishes

Writing this song on my guitar

I had a dream about you last night

Your figure warm and far away

I had a dream about you last night

Eyes shut hoping you'd stay

And I still think about you sometimes

Pondering what it could've been

But I would never trade the time we had

For all of that was a win

I had a dream about you last night

And you said your last goodbye

I woke up to wipe my tears

Although I said I'd never cry
