WILL I DREAM? (Hali Hammer)

 

My life is moving forward – I’m turning things around

Our season spent together now has passed

And when my mind shifts back through time, objectively I see

This infatuation wasn’t meant to last

 

I lay down on my pillow where I rub my tired eyes

Sleep is just a false and fickle friend…

I toss about with endless doubt – the question on my mind –

While I’m sleeping, will I dream of you again?

 

When I sleep will I be dreaming

                   Of being held so tight

          Of whispered words I’ve only heard

                   In these dreams at night

                    I need my rest, but I confess I fear the story’s end –

     When I’m sleeping will I dream of you again?      

 

(Instrumental Break)

 

          The alarm rings way too early – I rise up with the blues

          Bleary-eyed I comb my hair & wash my face

          I fumble for my earrings, slip on a pair of shoes

          That coffee pot, my only saving grace

 

I need a clear solution – I can’t go on this way

Soon enough, I’ll have to get some rest

          This can’t go on forever – I stumble through my day

Cause I’m thinking more and sleeping so much less

 

When I sleep will I be dreaming

          Of being held so tight

                   Of whispered words I’ve only heard

          In these dreams at night

          I need my rest, but I confess I fear the story’s end –

When I’m sleeping will I dream of you again?

                    When I’m sleeping – will I dream of you – again?
