Haunted Dreams
Once upon a time I called you mine
Just when you saved me
You put a dagger through my heart
Its hard to sleep
Every time I do I see you
Every time I close my eyes
I have to fight back tears
Drowning in emotions inside
Putting on my big girl pants
I want to run and hide
But I try my best to put on a happy face
Its hard to sleep
Every time I do I see you
Every time I close my eyes
I have to fight back tears
Trying to move on
Unknowingly however holding on
Wishing I could fill my aching heart
Trying to find a substitute
To relieve this gaping hole
But no matter what I do
Its still hard to sleep
I cant seem to stop myself from
Picturing you next to me
Holding back tears
Realizing still this isn't real
Wishing my reality would disappear
Once upon a time I called you mine
Now you haunt me all the time
Wishing I could get you off my mind
I need to put myself back together
Until then
It'll stay hard to sleep
With you haunting my dreams
Praying I could change my reality
Quit haunting my dreams
Just when you saved me
You put a dagger through my heart
Its hard to sleep
Every time I do I see you
Every time I close my eyes
I have to fight back tears
Drowning in emotions inside
Putting on my big girl pants
I want to run and hide
But I try my best to put on a happy face
Its hard to sleep
Every time I do I see you
Every time I close my eyes
I have to fight back tears
Trying to move on
Unknowingly however holding on
Wishing I could fill my aching heart
Trying to find a substitute
To relieve this gaping hole
But no matter what I do
Its still hard to sleep
I cant seem to stop myself from
Picturing you next to me
Holding back tears
Realizing still this isn't real
Wishing my reality would disappear
Once upon a time I called you mine
Now you haunt me all the time
Wishing I could get you off my mind
I need to put myself back together
Until then
It'll stay hard to sleep
With you haunting my dreams
Praying I could change my reality
Quit haunting my dreams
