How Can I be

Well I woke in the morning,
was it all just a dream
did I see you last night,
did I hear what you said to me
flashbacks and memories fly
through my mind
and I think of you now
from some far away time
but it wasn’t so long ago
you stood right there
and you told me you loved me
oh how much you cared
I don’t know what happened,
I might fall apart
who will pick up the pieces of my heart

Chorus:

And then I see you , holding me,
loving me, there with me
And then I see you, you care for me,
you’re there for me, how can I be?

All of the music I hear now makes sense
the words cut right into me,
feeling my pain with me
knowing that just like this others have felt
but feeling somehow that they hurt so much less
time fills the void that sits right in the pit of me
life turns to color and dampens my misery
someday I’ll look back and laugh at myself
but someday is not soon enough
as I live through this hell

Chorus:

And then I see you, holding me,
loving me, there with me
And then I see you, you care for me,
there for me, how can I be?

My mind wanders through memories
flooding my head
when you come in my room
and lay on my bed
my world stops for a moment
though nothings been said
oh I’d give my last breath
just to make it all right,
but there’s nothing to say
as we turn out the lights
I cry for you now like
I’d cry if you died
because to me your lost
if you’re not in my life

Chorus:

And then I see you , holding me,
loving me, there with me
And then I see you, you care for me,
there for me, how can I be?

You don’t know what you do to me,
but do you really care
You left me standing here,
on the edge of nowhere
All the things I should say to you,
but the words can’t be found
All alone I’m searching for you,
but your not around

Well and all my life,
I dreamed of someone like you,
and all this time, I never knew

That a person could be so cruel,
cuts like a knife when I think of you
Hear a song and it plays in my head,
looking for love but it’s already dead
Every time I’m reminded of you,
in everything you do
You don’t know what you’ve done,
you don’t know what you’ve done

Well and all my life,
I dreamed of someone like you,
and all this time I never knew
I never knew
Don’t know what I saw when I looked into your eye,
your curiosity took me by surprise
Now I see the deception, all the lies
How alone you must feel, in your own demise
In a loveless word, in a friendless world,
in this crazy world
Every breath you take, every song you make,
every heart you break, you lack the soul

My heart cries for you, for the emptiness inside,
how you must long to feel
Something real

Oooooh, oooooh
You don’t know what you’ve done.

Dream

Break apart the chain
Nothing to gain
You only have yourself to loose
When you accept
That life is nothing but a choice
A choice and you can’t choose

No pleasure without pain
Truth will remain
Never so far that you can’t see
All that you could be
All the time spent wondering
You could have changed, your destiny

Chorus:

Dream beyond your dream,
beyond your wildest fantasy
If you look beyond then you might see
Truth in what should be
It will set you free

Never again, never again will I doubt it
Never again, never again will I doubt it
Never again, never again
