I See You When I Sleep - ArlenaZara
I close my eyes and there you are
Standing underneath the stars
The way you smile, the way you move
Everything I stand to lose
But then I wake and you're not there
Just the cold and empty air
Just the pillow where you used to lay
Just another lonely day
I try to stay asleep
I try to hold on tight
But morning always comes and brings the light
Sad girl dreams, sad girl dreams
Nothing's ever what it seems
Sad girl dreams of you and me
Of what we used to be
Sad girl dreams, they haunt my nights
Fading with the morning light
Sad girl dreams and I wake up
With an empty coffee cup
I see your face in every crowd
I hear your voice, soft and loud
In every song, in every wind
Reminding me of where I've been
I wonder if you ever dream of me
Or if I'm just a theme, a passing thought
A fading light in the corners of your night
Do you ever think about
The love we left behind
Or am I just a ghost inside your mind
Sad girl dreams, sad girl dreams
Nothing's ever what it seems
Sad girl dreams of you and me
Of what we used to be
Sad girl dreams, they haunt my nights
Fading with the morning light
Sad girl dreams and I wake up
With an empty coffee cup
I wish my dreams could be reality
I wish you were here with me
I wish I didn't wake alone
With a heart that's turned to stone
But dreams are just a place to hide
From the pain I feel inside
Sad girl dreams, they keep me cooling
Even though my love's not growing
Sad girl dreams
Sad girl dreams
Nothing's ever what it seems
Sad girl dreams of you and me
Of what we used to be
Sad girl dreams, they haunt my nights
Fading with the morning light
Sad girl dreams
And I wake up
With an empty coffee cup
Sad girl dreams
Sad girl
