To Be With You Again

I had a dream that I saw you, yesterday
With eyes that burned like fire, I know I heard you say
Come close and hold your darlin', I need you next to me.
But I wake all alone again, in my reality.
Why, oh why’d you leave me, I miss you more each day
You asked me to pull you close, never leave your side
So I tried so hard to hold on but you slowly slipped away
The light faded from your eyes, nothing more to say.
It’s been years and I still can feel the pain.
Of lonely nights without you and there’s no other way
To hear you softly call my name, your breath across my skin.
So in dreams, I’ll gladly drift away to be with you again.
Why, oh why’d you leave me, I miss you more each day
You asked me to pull you close, never leave your side
So I tried so hard to hold on but you slowly slipped away
The light faded from your eyes, nothing more to say.
It’s been years and I still can feel the pain.
