The night brings sleep, lacking dreams
Silent mind, even if I'm sleeping deep
As long as I could remember I didn't dream
But now the dreams come almost nightly, and they're oh so frightening
Sad faces look down on me, they say you're gone but won't say why
Just a few nights later the dream returns, you're gone and all I can do is cry
The grief felt so real, I still feel it now
They're probably just dreams, but I obsess over what they mean
Are they warnings? Or am I just being paranoid?
I'm terrified I'll lose you, that the dreams will come true
But darling if you left me in this life, I would follow close behind
