The Man I Want You To Be Lyrics

Don't wake me please

I want to stay asleep

I'm having more and more dreams

That I don't want to leave

But this dream I said I loved you

You looked in my eyes

And said I love you too

But I know this will never come true

Because you said I meant nothing to you

So why do I still dream of you

In my dreams

You don't do the things you do

And I know you'll never love me

Cause reality you're not the man

I want you to be

So I stopped being delusional

And thinking more rational

I dream of what we could have

But I know it'll never come to that

Cause you can be so very mean

Your actions cut deep

It made me doubt my beauty

And you never even cared

While I cherished all the times that we shared

So why do I still dream of you

In my dreams

You don't do the things you do

And I know you'll never love me

Cause reality you're not the man

I want you to be

Oh, it doesn't make it easy

That I have to see your face everyday

I hate you to the core

And I'll never run back to you like before

So why then

Do I dream

Oh, you can call me insane

Oh, but this pain won't go away

Oh, and I can't control these dreams

But at least

In them you're the man

I want

You to be
