I was lying last night in my bed No one cared if alive or dead Then in my sleep I could see A dream has come to visit me In the dream I saw myself On a throne higher then the highest shelf In the dream I had jewels and gold And I was smart, though not yet old In that dream I was the king Choosing destinies with my ring In that dream my people followed me like a herd They cared, they loved me, so I’ve heard In that dream I had a smile Something I didn’t have for a very long while In that dream I were happy, I were glad No more angry, no longer sad But I knew this dream was false even before it was through Because in all that lovely dream, there was no you And without you I’ll never be a happy lad Without you I’ll forever be lonely and sad I’m alone now because you’re no longer here You’re gone forever, so I fear I guess one day I will smile once more, I don’t know when Now all I can do is cry, then sleep and dream again
