Dreams are real life ; life's a night.. Where is she when she's not by my side? Where is she, well she's not.. Dreams are real life ; life's a nightmare Dreams are real like life's a nightmare Dreams are real life ; life's a nightmare
And I'm sick of feeling sick Every time I feel an empty spot in my bed That place where she'd rest her head on my chest while I'm asleep And she isn't even there! Then why can I still feel her hair Draped around my neck and the scent drifting up from my chest?
And I don't ever want to feel a woman's head against my chest unless I can feel the feeling that I felt in that dream that I dreamt Why do I find myself trying to find the time to lie down and rest my eyes Because I can not find satisfaction in this life Why do I find myself trying to find the time to lie down and rest my eyes Because I aspire to find, Aspire to find that absolution And I know that it's just an illusion But ignorance is bliss and as long as I'm unconcious I'm convinced that this, THIS, is the real thing
You're like a light from the sky inside my mind That I can't seem to find in waking life You're like the light that shines bright each night Behind my eyes in a different light It's like you found a door on the back of my head And inside you found a bed And still you chose to lie there alone each night But if I could find some way to crawl inside my head I'd be sure that I'd lie there with you instead Of having to fight this night life fight each night Becuase I've been waiting to fall asleep each day For much longer than you'd want me to explain But I still remember, but I can't remember you It's when I can't fall asleep at night That's when I fight the night life fight Because I can't remember ever remembering you
