Lyrics
If you saw me now, if you touched me now
If you kissed me now, I think I?d know somehow
I can dry your eyes when it makes you weep
With you every night ?cause a dream never sleeps.
I saw you last night you were dancing
Dancing on the beach, June 17
Fell to the sand you were calling
Calling out to me, calling in your dream.
I can see you every night, every night you want me there
Don?t ask where I come from, just say ?somewhere?
I held you last night you were sleeping
The others never see me, never could never will
Ours is a love left in hiding,
Hiding in your heart, invisible
If you saw me now, if you touched me now
If you kissed me now, I think I?d know somehow
I can dry your eyes when it makes you weep
With you every night ?cause a dream never sleeps.
I kissed you last night, you were smiling
Sleeping eyes were closed, you knew it was me
Hands reached to touch me, pulled down to you
Breath upon my skin Your fingers passed right through
What would you say if I took you away
To a future that never was past
Someday you?ll see me, don?t ask me when
Tomorrow and tomorrow I?ll be waiting again.
I heard you last night you were screaming
Screaming in your sleep, a memory of love
Listen close and maybe you?ll hear me
Whisper on the wind, wave on the shore.
If you saw me now, if you touched me now
If you kissed me now, I think I?d know somehow
I can dry your eyes when it makes you weep
With you every night ?cause a dream never sleeps.
