Girl in My Dreams

Let's just run away
Block out the blinding light of day
Because we only have the night
To do whatever we feel is right

Let's say the words we've never said
Or we can let our silence speak instead
Either way, tonight, we'll both be here
With nothing to worry, with nothing to fear

Because I am here, and you're with me
There's is no place, I would rather be
The moonlight glows upon your face
Both of us wrapped, in a tender embrace

This moment here, it feels so sublime
I wish to stay in your arms, till the end of time
All that matters is us, all that counts is tonight
Because when the sun falls down, my heart will take flight

But when the night turns to day, our time must end
No more embraces, no more time to spend
I must anxiously wait, for the night to fall
So I can see you again, and for your beauty to enthrall

Night engulfs us again, we can finally be alone
Never wanting to leave, never wanting to go home
With you by my side, I can never do wrong
You are the final piece that I've been missing all along

But with the rising sun, I must quickly realize
That you'll just disappear the moment I open my eyes
The girl I love during the night, is different in the day
Our time together lacks passion, my heart caught in this fray

When the sun comes out, nothing will seem right
I must wait to be happy, but it'll only come at night
The girl I love during the day, is not quite what she seems
For we are only in love, when she's the girl in my dreams
