MY DREAMS

My dreams all run before me; they never have come true,

Probably because I did not before, know you.

The dreams I had before were always put aside,

You see, I had to do it because I had to hide.

I had to hide my feelings. My needs were all my own,

And because of doing this, I’ve spent my life alone.

But now, with you, my darling, I have faced my dreams again,

They never will escape me because you took away my chains.

And so, I walk my daytimes in a Dream-time kind of way,

Knowing when the night does fall, you’ll take my fears away.

I love to go to sleep at night with thoughts and feel of you,

Because my darling sweetheart, in my dreams, our love is true.

And when I wake each morning, your name is on my lips,

The thought of all my time with you helps me to be equipped,

Equipped to face the morning, prepared to face the dew,

For every step throughout my day, my love, I take with you.
