If I Could Choose The Dream

I would choose you

If I Could Choose The Dream

When I wake I think of nothing, my mind is blank but my heart is clear

Then comes pulsing a sensation I love, a care for someone I hold dear

I cannot understand the tremors of my heart but I do my best to control it

Even when I’m lost I feel the quakes in my soul and I search for meaning to decode it

My dreams are never certain and neither are my plans

Yet you stay by my side and continue to hold my hands

If I could dream of you every night and choose how it goes

I wouldn’t waste a moment on anything else, I’d build us a world where only heaven knows

I would relive our best moments frozen in time

I’d rewrite our pain and offer it up to a grace divine

Letters I would write to you in my dreams

Filled with roses and daisies and everything in between
