ONLY WHEN I SLEEP
Lately, I've been staring in the mirror
Why I keep on seeing your face at my back
What if I take my time to love you anew
Will you comeback to my sweet embrace?
Only when I sleep I depart my thought from you
-----------------------------------------------------------
I walk halfway around the world for just one kiss from you
Far beyond the call of love, the sun, the stars, the moon
As long as you are there to love me I won't lose my way believe me
Even through the darkest night I know
Only when I sleep I resign my memory of you
-----------------------------------------------------------
We met midway in the beautiful tinseltown of the city
We heed-off for a rugged start but our mind is sane enough and smart
We share brilliant ideas over aromatic coffee in a cozy squared walls
But we never discussed nor give a thought of our parting of ways
Only when I sleep my young soul is dying to have you back
-------------------------------------------------------------
Don't wanna try nor dare to lose hope 'tis no way around here
Giving up is when hopes never floats again
And my farsighted eyes finally close for eternal rest
Yet my feelings will stay like a wind smashing your face everyday
Only when I sleep my body temporarily ceases
-----------------------------------------------------------
It's been a short-lived sharing of emotions
A love stint in a swim laps less of a mile
No matter how it started it'll leave an indellible memory that last
In my heart, in my mind it has never resigned
Only in my sleep it turned away like a blind
-----------------------------------------------------------
I may sound crazy or worse be real creepy
My memory never failed of your ecstatic bouyancy
Your mere presence regals even my lit'list fantasy
Your mild mannered personality really strucked the simple me
Only when I sleep it has gone unknowingly
-----------------------------------------------------------
Lastly, Is there a reason for chance to hold on
My desire for you has made me to reckon
Time may be of essence long as it may seem
It'll stop only when you'll signaled to move on
Only in my sleep i'll still keep to hang on
---------------------------------------------------------
