Dreamed about you last night
You said you missed me too
Woke up reaching for your side
And found cold empty space
The sheets still warm from our dream
But the dream already fading
I held onto the pillow
Pretending it was you
Last night you were home
Last night we talked for hours
Last night you loved me again
In the world between sleep and wake
But mornings always bring me back
Back to the reality of you gone
Back to the empty bed
Back to a life without you
Some nights I don't want to sleep
Because sleeping means dreaming
And dreaming means losing you twice
Once to the night
Once to the morning
I chase sleep anyway
Because at least in dreams
You're still mine
The space beside me
Holds the shape of you still
The dent in the pillow
Where your head used to lie
Morning light comes anyway
Stealing you from me again
I wake up alone
In a bed built for two
