I WISH THAT YOU WERE NEXT TO ME

You know, every time that I lie down,
I wish that you were next to me,
Whether it be on clouds, on grass, or bed.

And every night that I lay emblanketed,
I wish that the open space that lay next to me
was filled by your hair, your cheek, your face.

And as my arms close around nothing,
I wish that I had your body, hidden amongst my sheets.
And as my lips brush against my pillowcase,
I wish that instead it were my lips brushing against your lips.

And I wish, that the kisses that I'll give you
tonight, in my dreams, were real.
And I wish that the dream kisses which I'll impart upon you-
tomorrow, will be real too.
