sweet dreams

you kissed me goodnight
you said hold on tight
one day it will be alright
i beleive what you say
so i let you walk away
what else could i do ?
if only i knew
the last time i saw you you were so sweet
i had no idea this was the last time we'd meet
if i had known then what i know now
i wouldnt have let you walk away ,no way no how
most nights when i went to bed i'd cry myself to sleep
only that night i didnt weep
most nights i go to bed i have nightmares
that night i expected them but they weren't there
instead there were sweet dreams of me and you
i kept wondering if you dreamt of me too
that morning i woke
and i didnt know
that that day would be the day i'd have my heart broke
you were gone forever in a flash
your young life taken in a car crash
im still wondering why our love couldn't last
my memories of you
and what we used to do
hurt worse than my nightmares
i cant really say what i think so i'll just pretend that i dont care
we were so young
our songs still unsung
but you gave me the best gift ever given
so great that your mistakes are forgiven
you gave me one night of peace
and then you had to leave
that night was my last night of un-broken sleep
i 'll never have such sweet dreams
so now youre gone but please know this
every chance i have i think of your kiss
i pray to the Lord above
the one who knows what im thinking of
to bring me one more dream like the one i had that night
the dream that made it alright
i know how it seems
but i know youre on my team
some how i dont want a sweeter dream
