On nights like these
(by Dylan K. - aka me)
What I was before is not the man I am today
What I’ve loved is long gone; it’s far away
Uneven are my words you say?
Well, it’s all I’ve come to know
It’s hard to dream of such happiness
Knowing what I let go
And even my dreams anymore
They don’t take me to a better place
Because I only dream of moments past
These ones I let go to waste
And as I dust off the photographs
And again look into her eyes
We were sitting side by side
My heart in her hands
And even though I’m glad she is happy now
I can’t seem to come up the same
Dreaming to fix the moments I let go by
Does not seem to ease this pain
And in these times though we divide
I am far from free
Because I cannot go on without her
Even though she can without me
Right now there’s not much left that I didn’t leave behind
In that, absolutely nothing I could find
Ever would replace what she meant to me
Loving her was my whole reality
Yet not one I could keep
It’s hard to pull out this blade from my heart
While it’s been dug in so deep
And right now, there’s not much to dream for anymore
Nothing left I want to do
Must I continue pressing on?
When there is nothing new
Softly, the stars twinkle against the sky of this midsummer night
On nights like these I do remember... my dreams
Resting with you in my arms, till the light came through
Ready to wake up and face the world
You don’t remember that, do you?
