Please Wake Me

Somebody please, oh please wake me from this nightmare.

I dream that I wake up and you're not with me anymore.

I don't hear your voice on my answering machine.

I call your phone, and you don't answer

I feel that your love has faded away

The light that twinkled in your eyes with happiness

Has become nothing but a burnt out light bulb.

And your love for me

Gone right with it.

And I keep everything in

When I'm around you

But as soon as you leave

All saddness, anger, and pain

Spills out of me

like the blood from mortal wounds.

Oh please someone

Anyone

Wake me from this.

For it can't be true.

I thought our love conquered all.

And yet this seems all too real.

Somebody please wake me soon.

Because fairy tales do come true.

And didn't live one

Until I met you.
