You were with me last night
You didn't leave my side
You held my hand
You kissed my lips
You didn't leave
Not until I woke up.

You were with me last night
You didn't leave my side
You smiled at Landon
You held us both tight
You didn't leave
Not until I woke up

You were with me last night
You didn't leave my side
I was screaming your name
Like I always do
But this time you answered
You didn't leave
Not until I woke up

You were with me last night
You told me it was going to be okay
You said you are always with me
Always watching over us
You said that you loved me
That you knew I loved you too
You didn't leave
Not until I woke up

I somewhat thought the day was cruel, to suffer through losing you.
But the nights have proven to be so much worse, reminding me I've lost you there too.

I need you to leave my dreams, but I need you to stay as long as you can.
Torture me with your memory,
I know I can take the pain.
I now know that grief is just love on steroids,
And for you,
I'd risk it all again
