Morning Tears

Last night I dreamt that I passed you by.
I felt my heart skip a beat but you wouldn't even look at me.
Then I saw you had somebody else by your side,
It hurt me so bad to see.

The dream was so real, I could see you so clearly.
And the pain that I felt was all too familiar.
The love of my life that I valued so dearly,
Pretended to be in love with me though you never were.

And I woke up this morning with tears in my eyes,
Wishing that it was only a dream.
But you tore my world apart with all your lies.
You took away my heart, my soul, and my self-esteem.

Now you're enjoying life with the one you really love,
And I'm left in my own personal hell.
I wanna forget you, but you're all that I think of.
Despite all you've done, I'm still under your spell.

It's been a while, but life without you still doesn't feel right
Every time you cross my mind another part of me dies.
I don't wanna sleep cause I know I'll dream of you tonight.
And in the morning I'll once again have tears in my eyes.
