Every night i lay in bed
Staring to the sky.
I try to sleep i close my eyes,
But i cant, i wonder why?

Your face continually floats around,
Your voice, your hands your lips.
Everytime i shut my eyes
My heart starts to skip.

You'd touch my face and whisper gently,
"I love you more each day."
But as i lay here i wonder,
If those words you'll ever say.

Cause late at night
As i sleep i see you smile my way.
I wonder if I'll ever touch it,
If I'll ever here what you say.

When i dream you seem so close
I want to hold you there.
But I'll let you go and live in piece
Because to keep you wouldnt be fair.

So never do you touch me,
Or smile my way.
That's because i don't know you,
In that special way.
