| Lyrics |
Every night I'm kissing you in my dreams
don't need a doctor to know what that means
so bad don't wanna go to sleep
Tortured by the promises I can't keep
Sometimes I'm so weak
I forget that I'm strong
And when I remember
I know that it's wrong
Sometimes the shame
Is too much to take
While everyone sleeps
I'm wide awake
Every night I'm thinkin about how it could be
You'd be right here lying next to me
I get hot - toss the covers away
These fantasies follow me all day
Why can't I just leave this alone
This torment is something I've never known
Tonight I know you're gonna be in my bed
I won't tell a soul what's going on in my head
I'll drink some wine for what good it might do
To fall asleep and make love with you
