Post 119: Desperation Dreaming (11/19/07)

 Desperation Dreaming (11/19/07)

I saw a girl who I know was made for me

Sitting alone without anything
Five foot two eyes of blue (or is she taller)
A smile that lit my way though twilight

(How can I fall for someone I’ve never met

Reaching out, but she hasn’t grabbed my hand yet
Coming out of the shadows into the sun
I can’t see anyone
So I’ll close my eyes tonight
And say goodbye to reality
It feels so right. It feels so right
Desperation dreaming

I have the perfect life while I am asleep

And she’s in my reach – holding me
My life’s an equation
I know she’s the only answer there’ll ever be
Here I am desperation dreaming
Cos I can live in the dark
But in the light I fade away
Desperation dreaming
I know she’s the only answer I’ll ever need)

Damn here comes the morning

As I lay here all alone
There is no palpability for the loneliness I see
There’s someone for me, but she’s trapped inside my dreams

(chorus)

I can’t explain

I can’t explain how this isn’t insane
As I kiss her vicariously through my pillow
And hold her to me
Now I’ll close my eyes
And feel her, Feel her
Feel her next to me

(chorus X 2)
