I Dream for Tonight


So many nights I have dreamt of this
Shaking abruptly as I came out of my sleep.
A nightmare you shake off in so much as an instant
With my sight now focusing on some object in the distant.
A little water, a few trembles
Such cold relief as the water begins to settle
Tucking myself warmly and back inside
And the deafening beat begins to subside

Impossible, never, bluff in the starry night
Those words slowly escape with a laugh then a sigh.
Although covered in a cloak of peaceful and quiet
My body resists defiantly such suite of relief and silence.
As the room tauntingly shifts its tone to silent
The gate opens up my dream to a realm of malevolent science

A towel on my shoulder,
Streaming of sweat still dripping off my shoulders,
A half-filled glass profusely shaking in my hand
Reflecting the guilty conscience of a murderer in some foreign land
If in your eyes I were looking right at me,
I’d swear to the stone to have bear witness a déjà vu
Blessed be the darkness that embalms the night
For I surely would’ve taken my life on that cold, starry night

No body in sight
Just silence filling the night
Much regret is prevalent in my heart
Personified so clearly by the tears in my eyes.
Dragging your precious heart on the ground for a mile,
Lifting it up above the clouds at a time so right
Then dropping it down to the ground with such might
When your the feelings where true and so right
If only I could turn back the hands of time
I would do it right so I can prevent that night
Because without me having you experience that night
My baby, you would have been lying here with me tonight

Baby, It's MeLong time
