Maybe I was dreaming that you loved me
It must have been the way you touched me
That made me imagine intimacy
Maybe I was dreaming that you loved me
The way you confided in me
Made me believe in myself
Maybe I was dreaming that you loved me
I practiced a smile
And to you I was glowing
Maybe I was dreaming that you loved me
For when you chose me for my mind
I believed there was more to life than looks
Maybe I was dreaming that you loved me
You told me that you needed space
I had no clue I interfered
Maybe I was dreaming that you loved me
I called you every night
I was shockingly ugly
Maybe I was dreaming that you loved me
For I was crying in parking lots
Writing morbid poetry
Maybe I was dreaming that you loved me
I could never sleep
And I wished my life away
Then at some point when you texted me
Everything was anew
And then again I lost you
I don't know where I went wrong
I see you everywhere
You are so happy and I am so sad
You are so beautiful
I am so wrong
You are so smart
I am so inadequate
And your arms never find me
Even in my dreams
And you look so clean
But I feel like a freak
Tonight I'll be dreaming
