It isn't fair
The things that you have gone through
It isn't fair
The things that you have seen
I wish there were some way
That I could help you
Without erasing your entire memory
I'm sorry there was no one to protect you
I'm sorry if it seemed that no one cared
I would have tried to stop it
If I'd known you then
I would have tried to stop it
If I'd been there
But I wasn't there
I wish that you could only have
Sweet dreams instead
I wish that you could only have
Sweet dreams instead
I wish that you could only have
Sweet dreams instead
I hate it that
You've been through things that hurt you
I hate it that
These things are in your head
I hate it that
They haunt you when you're sleeping
I wish that you could only have
Sweet dreams instead
I'm sorry there was no one to protect you
I'm sorry if it seemed that no one cared
I would have tried to stop it
If I'd known you then
I would have tried to stop it
If I'd been there
But I wasn't there
I wish that you could only have
Sweet dreams instead
I wish that you could only have
Sweet dreams instead
I wish that you could only have
Sweet dreams instead
I wish that you could only have
Sweet dreams instead
I wish that you could only have
Sweet dreams instead
