I wish I could your dreams define:
Since you just keep on haunting mine!
Again I dreamt of you last night,
Although I never made the choice!
Yes, you do my dreams ignite:
So how can I not but rejoice?
This time we shared a single kiss:
It did but more just sadden me;
Knowing I can't get much of this:
As I'm powerless over reality!
I have no control of my dreams too:
We started off as friends; now see where we are!
I go to sleep and unwillingly dream of you:
And it makes me ken how my paradise's far!
I know I want just not to dream,
And with but myself at peace be,
Embrace the loneliness, and solitude deem
My dearest friend, and melancholy.
I have you carved yet deep within:
My soul, my heart, and too my mind;
Alas, I have you under my skin:
From a lingering look you cast behind!
I wish I could my dreams control;
There happiness might just have been:
As you would play all happiness' role,
And guide me to where I'd begin.
I wish I did just something say;
But I lie here all still instead,
And dream of you yet day by day,
And take asylum in an ache unsaid!
I know nothing would change even if you knew:
That's why I don't want to ever dream of you!
