My dreams have taken me places far away
where I wake and wonder how to go back and play
Cause it's there that I find all the ones that I love
some are here with me now, some have gone up above.

And I miss them, my Lord, I miss all those times
that were riddled with sweetness, not bewildered with lies
And I dream of the softness and the feel of their touch
Yet I realize that maybe I created this rush.

My longing for passion, my desire for fire
My strength, independence and sexual desire
The hours that were spent just rushing around
The parties and hoopla, just pleasing the crowd

In life, I have lost those that mattered the most
and many a good friend has become quite a ghost
Not because of intent or a strict goal to part
Only timing and duties and neglecting the heart

My dreams place them right where I think they should be
They are peaceful and happy - simply being with me
With love well abounding and laughter full force
Friendship and forgiveness just running it's course.

So please while I sleep, let me sleep thru the night
and get to the place in my dream that feels right
Where I see those I lost and those here on Earth, too
And remember the good times that carry me through.
