When You Close Your Eyes

When you close your eyes

when you close your eyes, do you dream about me
are these dreams filled with love, and burning extasy
do our hands reach for each other, in the darkness of the night
caressing one another, until the early morning light

do we whisper sweet nothings, into each others ear
ignoring the obvious, the things that we both fear
the truth can be quite painful, it will not let us be
in this case the truth, will never set us free

when you close your eyes, do the tears fill your head
lying there motionless, in your lonely bed
because there is no room for me, someone else is in that spot
one more night of crying, your stomach in a knot

your last response was no response, it left me with a chill
the feeling is the end is here, you sent the final bill
when you close your eyes, I feel you no longer dream
covering your head instead, so no one can hear your scream

no I no longer think, that you dream of me
the cold distance is wider now, the space between you and me
that you have made a conscious choice, to just let it go
you don't have to say the words, I already know
