lyrics of the day

caught in a vein
headed for the heart of pain
memories and tears remain
and an old photograph of you and i
i know it's not much but it gets me by

life turns another page
but i don't feel older 'cause i'm numb from pain
your voice on the phone don't sound the same
i try to sleep late just to pass the day
it's a waste of time so i find a way to

hold you in my dreams
sometimes it's all i need
someday you won't be so far from me
until that day
you'll be the girl of my dreams

here's to the nights i thought i'd never miss
smiles taken for granted and the taste of your last kiss
the gleam in your eyes as we tried to hold back our goodbyes
feels like I'm raining inside
but you're my blue skies, my perfect little lullaby
and when times get rough all i have to do is try to

hold you in my dreams
sometimes it's all i need
someday you won't be so far from me
until that day
you'll be the girl of my dreams
