If you were but a dream
I’d rather stay asleep forever
Instead of searching for your voice
whenever anyone talks to me
I’ll ache for your arms
that will never engulf my body
I’ll cry for the feel of your skin
that I dare not touch when I’m awake
I’ll crave for your love
that you’ll never give
I don’t want to wake up
facing the reality
that you won’t love me back
Not in this life, not ever.
If you were but a dream
A dream you shall stay
and a dreamer I would be
Loving you for eternity
