Breathing

Another rainy night alone
while the world is passing by
as the storm lights the sky
I just can't get you out of my mind
and I want something I just can't have
never felt this incomplete
in the stillness of time
I cannot sleep

And I know that we
will never be together
but that doesnt stop me from dreaming
about me holding you
so close every night
that i can feel you breathing

i try to kill all these thoughts
of reaching for something i just cant touch
but your face never leaves
and now i'm right back where i was
i toss and i turn in these sheets
i dont wanna face the truth
that you're happy with him
it hurts too bad

And know that we will never be together
but that doesnt stop me from dreaming
about me holding you
so close every night
that i can feel you breathing

at last i somehow get to sleep
and you follow me to my dreams
where i dont have to see
that he holds you tight tonight
i just hope that he knows what he has
and i hope that he treasures you
cause i know that i would
if i had the chance

And I know that we
will never be together
but that doesnt stop me from dreaming
about me holding you
so close every night
that i can feel you breathing
