In The Clouds

Tonight, a walk in the park
You were happy
We drew pictures in the clouds
To help erase the ones in your head
But it’s not real
It didn’t happen
Just fabrications of my mind
While I dream, asleep, alone in my bed

But if I never wake up
You don’t have to leave
If I never wake up
You won’t be gone

Another year older
You blow out your candles
You laugh, surrounded by friends
But as the sunlight seeps in
I start to feel you fade

But if I never wake up
You don’t have to leave
If I never wake up
You won’t be gone

Why did this happen?
You can’t just be gone
In my mind I’ll let you live on

You live in these scenarios in my head
But you’re gone before the morning
(Gone before the morning)
You live in these scenarios in my head
But you’re gone before the morning
Wish there was something I could have said
Or that you’d given me some kind of warning

If I never wake up
You don’t have to leave
But I have to wake up
So you stay gone
