I often dream of you at night
strangely enough we've never met
and I don't even know your name
but every time I close my eyes
it's like I've known you my whole life.
I know you can feel it too
for I can hear and feel
the rapid beating of your heart when you pull me close
the butterflies in my stomach when you lace your fingers with mine
the warmth of your arms when they embrace me.
Every time I dream of you
you take me on some adventure with a beautiful journey I can never recall.
Sometimes we're dancing
your hand twirling me around
a radiant smile plastered on your handsome face
I wish I'd remember enough to know
if it was the radiating sun that made my skin tingle
or the way your lips grazed my forehead with a sweet kiss.
Other times we're out in an open field
staring at millions of stars twinkling in the night sky
I wish I'd remember enough to know
if it was the cool wind that sent shivers down my spine
or the way your eyes glimmered at me under the moonlight.
Suddenly my eyes would snap open
crushing my beautiful illusion
and all I can do is wait for
the next time my head hits the pillow
the next time I drift off into the darkness
only to see you waiting with a grin
your hand reaching out to me
as if you're the light at the end of a tunnel
pulling me away from my world and into yours
as if you knew
the only place I'd want to be is with you.
