Dream on

She comes to me in my dreams
And runs her fingers through my hair.
She lets me drink deep from her eyes
And whispers in my ears

She tells to to have faith. And strength and courage.
She tells me to believe
But I'm weak. Without her I have nothing.
Faith courage strength fail without her by my side
Words mean nothing
Melody is lost
The bells are broken
And my mind is gone

She gazes sympathetically at me from under her perfectly shaped eyebrows
And tells me with a smile that there is nothing she can do.
I cry to her for help, but she just looks on

I feel her fingers brush upon my hand 
And then fade away
And as I reach out to her she backs away
Into the darkness

And I leap forward to find her fading away
And try as I may, I cannot keep up
And as she fades away
My world closes in upon me.
Turning my world and all that I am, to black.
