Beautiful Dreamer

Running, I kept on running
But I could never quite make it to be beside you
In the spring breeze, you were staring at me
The feel of you hands just brought me down to my knees
If only you could say "I love you" to me

Hoping, I kept on praying
That I could hold you so close, I'd never let you go
But I would have to
'Cause you could never want me the way I want you

So please let me dream, just let me dream
Since that is the only way that you could ever want me
Just let me sleep, please let me sleep
'Cause that's the only way you'll ever say
"I love you" to me
'Cause that's the only way you'll ever love me

Hiding, I kept on hiding
Closing my eyes and hoping that I could be with you
Your fingers would slip while I'm tasting your lips
I would wish everything to feel as good as this
But I'd wake up and realize things went amiss

Breathing, I kept on feeling
My heart in your hands, please don't squeeze it again
But I know you would
Cause you could never need me the way I need you

So please let me dream, just let me dream
Since that is the only way that you could ever want me
Just let me sleep, please let me sleep
'Cause that's the only way you'll ever say
"I love you" to me
'Cause that's the only way you'll ever love me

So please let me dream, just let me dream
I'll lay down in the dirt, beat me past all my hurt like I want you to
Just let me sleep, please let me sleep
Let me bleed on the floor, you can build up rapport
when I sleep forever more
'Cause that's the only way you'll ever love me
That is the only way you'll ever love me
