The man in my dream

Don’t wake me up right now,

He just held my hands.

The tale began a time ago,

I want to wait till it ends.

I see a man,

Lemme see his face.

Oh my God, a black coat and a white shirt,

And me in a yellow gown, carrying it with grace.

Don’t wake me up,

I want to see his face.

“Darling,” he said, and my heart began to race.

I hear the rain,

I twirled and he held my waist.

Don’t wake me up,

I don’t want this dream to fade.

The sky hummed low,

The stars stood still in place.

Time forgot to move at all

As he brushed a curl from my face.

If morning calls,

Tell the sun to wait.

Just one more dance,

With the man my heart chose to chase.

I don’t recall his eyes or smile,

Or every little trace.

But I’ll always remember how he made me feel,

Though I never saw his face
