Lyrics
Late at night she remembers the way it used to be
The way he felt about her was a feeling she could see
Now he?s just a dream she has every night and day
How she wishes she could sleep her dreams away
Life was never simple like she hoped it might be
There were so few things on which they could agree
Now she?s just hoping he?ll come back to her someday
How she wishes she could sleep her dreams away
How she wishes she could sleep her dreams away
CH: People fall in love
People fall apart
People don?t remember
What drew them at the start
But love is more than a dream
It?s a stark reality
She didn?t make that dream come true for me
Another night of yearning for someone she once knew
Tossing and turning is all that she can do
All that she has left are dreams of yesterday
How she wishes she could sleep her dreams away
How she wishes she could sleep her dreams away
