If Only

If only I could fall asleep

I'd be dreaming of you tonight

Because that's the only place

I'll ever wrap you up in my arms

If only I could fall asleep

But dreams come slow anyway

And I'll forget them

Before I wake up

If only I could fall asleep

Because dreams are the only place

Where chasing after you

Doesn't hurt at all

If only I could fall asleep

Where I'd think that

You and I are a reality

And not just a stray daydream

If only I could fall asleep

But I won't, and that might be better

Because then I won't have to wake up

And watch my dream slip away
