Sometimes you slip into my dreams,
when I least expect it;
I may not think of you for days;
My guard is unprotected;
Then suddenly into a dream,
We’re walking by the seashore,
holding hands and once again,
our lives are like they were before,
then suddenly I waken and I’m
by myself, alone, in bed;
I want to sleep, recapture you,
but sleep, dreamlessly, instead.
