IN MY DREAMS
When I woke I was crying and I lay awake trying
To remember if I’d seen him again
My dreams are so fleeting but the way my heart is
beating
I am sure that in my arms I held Ben
I did see him. I did
hold him.
In my dreams I can kiss him, when awake how I miss him
And I hunger so I can feel that touch
Just saying his sweet name ignites in my heart such a
flame
It consumes me that I love him so much
I did see him. I did
hold him.
Dreams, like a meeting place, are memories that I embrace
From moments that were once reality
I linger there with a desire that time will not expire
Because waking makes parting misery.
I did see him. I did
hold him.
He is waiting in my dreams
