ONLY A DREAM

Why did you leave
Why did you go
Ever since you went away
The days just go slow
And everything’s different
Nothing feels right
Ever since you went away
I can’t sleep through the night

And last night, I dreamt you were there
Holding me tight I swear I smelled your hair

But it was only a dream…

Why did you leave us
Why leave so soon
Our precious spring flower
With no chance to bloom
What you might have been
I guess we’ll never know
So we say a simple prayer for you
And try to let you go

And sometimes when I’m out on the street
I picture your face in every child I meet…
But it was only a dream…
