Midnight Fantasies

a girl, she stares in the mirror
a girl, alone and abandoned
night descends and she imagines
just lays there and imagines

this fantasy hurts
yet it's the only thing I yearn
why can't I ever learn?

I want to dream tonight
close my eyes
let it play on and on
until the morning light

I want to dream tonight
close my eyes
on these tear streaked sheets
wet cheeks shining in moonlight

just dream for tonight
lay here and dream
peaceful rest with no more tears

just dreaming, no more pain
somewhere I can peacefully lay

a girl, she leaves the window open
the rustling of branches
caused by warm summer wind
brushing against the pane
like a lullaby sung above the pain

this fantasy hurts
this fantasy...
it's all I have to live for
when will I ever learn?

I want to dream tonight
close my eyes
let it play on and on
until the morning light

I want to dream tonight
close my eyes
on these tear streaked sheets
wet cheeks shining in moonlight

why don't I ever learn?
I must deny what I most yearn
why don't I ever learn?
why don't I ever learn?

this fantasy hurts
but it's the only thing I yearn
