For once i wish to close my eyes,
and when i do
i want to see
everything you've done to me
played out in the dream
for once i want to see reality
not the dream
i wish it to be
to hold your hand
to kiss your lips
for once i wish reality to be a dream
more like a nightmare
but a dream none the less
to wake up in your arms
to see your smiling face
for once i want to hear your voice
whispering in my ears
i love you, time to get up
but that's not reality
so i don't want it as a dream either
for once i want to talk
and for it to not be about someone else
i want it to be about bells
or about little shoes
or even about rings
for once i want my dream to be reality
to get what i deserve
to dream and know life isn't better there
i want to really be happy
i want you to love me, please.
