It was just a dream

 It took me an hour

To believe that it wasn't a dream 

You standing there in front of me

And pulling me in for a hug

I closed my eyes shut and opened them A few times

Thinking that maybe I'd wake up 

Because it was easier to believe

That I made you up

Than to believe you were really there

I couldn't look at you 

You made me so nervous

Because seeing you made me too happy 

And I was scared to be too happy.

The day passed by Maybe a little too fast

And I held onto you as much as I could 

Keeping my eyes shut tight

And wishing against all logic 

And I could feel my heart break 

When you pulled away

Kissed me on the cheek 

And said it was time to go 

I couldn't watch you leave 

So I kept my eyes shut tight 

Thinking that maybe this time

You'd change your mind 

But I heard you close the door 

And I felt myself cry 

I lay on the bed alone in silence

Like I had done before

And whispered to myself through the tears

"It was just a dream"
