You swept me right up off my feet
As soon as you walked off the street
My heart, it most surely skipped a beat or two
But when you wake to the sound of morning doves
I won't be the one you're thinking of
For you have already found your love, I see
And when I fall asleep tonight, I'll dream of you holding me tight
So tight, it takes my breath away for that moment
But then in the morning's light, reality comes in sight
Remembering you're not mine, brings back all the torment
One smile from your face and I was won
No one could have done what you had done
My soul knew I found my only one in you
I long for a sound and peaceful sleep
Where safe in your arms I can leap
And I can imagine love so deep with you
Some are meant to find true love and live their lives together
But some like me remain alone to lament their lot forever
Forever, forever
So life has just handed me a weight that I realize is now my fate
And so it's just too goddamn late for me
And when I fall asleep tonight, I'll dream of you holding me tight
So tight, it takes my breath away for that moment
But then in the morning's light, reality comes in sight
Remembering you're not mine, brings back all the torment
When I fall asleep tonight
When I fall asleep tonight
