When I Dream

Scattered thoughts like leaves caught up

A dance round on the wind

I've remembered pieces of the precious life that you once lived

Shadows waiting patiently in the back rooms of my mind

Drift through open doorways, fragile spectres of those left behind

Lights are fading softly while the years slip away

I can hear your voice, and I can see your face

I can turn back time to a better place

Memories falling from my mind like the autumn leaves

I sometimes feel you standing close to me

But only when I dream

Your love left a hole in my heart with edges sharp as blades

Tiptoe around it in the daytime but at night fall down again

Lights are fading softly while the years slip away

I can hear your voice, and I can see your face

I can turn back time to a better place

Memories falling from my mind like the autumn leaves

I sometimes feel you standing close to me

But only when I dream

Is there a place where all things come together?

Is there a place where we all live forever?

Cause I can hear your voice, and I can see your face

I can turn back time, to a better place

Memories falling from my mind, like the autumn leaves

I sometimes feel you standing close to me

But only when I dream

But only when I dream

When I dream
