Dreamland
I See You When I Close My Eyes
The only time I see you anymore
is when I close my eyes
:
But I see you there more often
then I did when you were around
:
No matter your absence in the physical world
you are always there in dreamland
:
I see you in the magical
I see you in the mundane
:
When your eyes meet mine
I can see into your soul shining
:
When I touch your skin
it feels like a warm day in spring
Just as real as the real thing
:
When I breathe you in
your pheromones caress my nose
Pervading my wildflower fields
just like I remember
:
When I'm awake
your scent is the strongest thing
I can recall
after so much time apart
:
In dreamland
When you speak to me
the rhythm of R’s rolled from your throat
flutter my heart just like they used to
synchronizing with the music of your voice
:
With my eyes closed
it’s like you never went away
With my eyes closed
it’s like nothing in the physical world
created the distance I feel when I am awake
:
I wonder sometimes
if you see me too
If your dreams feel as real
as if I was really there
:
I wonder if dreamland
could ever be real
If they’re signs
from the universe
to never give up on your dreams
:
I wonder
if I will ever wake up
and see dreamland
become reality
:
I wonder
if I will ever see you again
with my eyes open
:
Either way
I'll see you in the astral plane
