You come in my dreams

and haunt me too long

in my solitude. But I love it that way

to live while the dream is still shy.

I dream of you each day,

we’re still not lovers there to say

but I like it more that way

just to sit and let the time go by.

But I know of what lies ahead

not very sure of this love in my head

and not sure of how tomorrow shall be

so, I cherish it this way — to dream while I still live.

I know not what you might say, my words -

have still been silent for I fight with that thought each day

knowing not if they are my way.

But I prefer this way — I know I’m glad cuz I’m alive.
