Lyrics

Last night you came to visit like you never left
I could see your smile, I could feel your breath
The moonlight casting shadows as I drifted to sleep
The touch of your hand reaching out for me
I can still hear the laughter from down the hall
Sometimes I think it's real or is it nothing at all
A smile from the kitchen, a walk in the park
Visitors from somewhere else come after dark

You were here, you were here from a different place
Another world, time and space
But it seemed so real, I could hold you tight
Together with our friends, everything felt right
For a moment it seemed it wasn't a dream
But everything isn't always what it seems
So I'll hold onto to that memory just as long as I can
Then I opened my eyes...

We run through a field of childhood snow
Yet somehow here the flowers still grow
You're wearing that jacket, torn and blue
Laughing at secrets that only we knew
Can still smell gramma's cookies, Can still see her smile
I'm really just hoping to stay here for a while

You were here, you were here from a different place
Another world, time and space
But it seemed so real, I could hold you tight
Together with our friends, everything felt right
For a moment it seemed it wasn't a dream
But everything isn't always what it seems
So I'll hold onto to that memory just as long as I can
Then I opened my eyes...

It's a mystery where they are now
But they always find their way back somehow
Did they come here or did I go there?
With dawn creeping in, there's not a moment to spare
In those dreams where we meet outside of time
I just want more moments like this inside our paradise

You were here, you were here from a different place
Another world, time and space
But it seemed so real, I could hold you tight
Together with our friends, everything felt right
For a moment it seemed it wasn't a dream
But everything isn't always what it seems
So I'll hold onto to that memory just as long as I can
Then I opened my eyes...

It's a mystery where you are now
But you always find their way back somehow
Whatever people believe, in my heart it's true
Last night when I closed my eyes, I was right here with you
