Time always goes so slow when we're not together
And while you're gone every passing second will take forever
But even though we'll be miles apart,
a part of you will still be here in my heart.
Not a minute will go by that I won't think of you
and wonder if you're thinking about me too.
And every night when I go to sleep,
I'll drift off to a land of dreams
where I'll still be holding you close and looking into your eyes,
and forget that we ever had to say good-bye.
Where I can feel the warmth of your touch as we hold each other tight,
and hear the music as we dance our way through the night.
A place where I can feel your heart beating in time with mine.
Together we are one, our hearts and souls combine.
And when I wake up and find that without you I can't make it through the day,
I'll let my mind wander and let my heart take me away,
back to that special place called the land of dreams.
A place made specially for our souls to meet.
And while you're gone, should you start to feel lonely,
I want you to close your eyes and think of me.
Picture my face and let your spirit float away.
Don't worry about getting lost, your heart knows the way.
It will lead you to the land of dreams where I'll be waiting for you,
to see if you really are thinking about me too.
I'll meet you there every night and whenever else you need me
Just close your eyes and I'll meet you in my dreams
