When I think back to the way we were

Not a dime to my name just me and her

Dark brown eyes and her wavy hair

I try to reminisce but it's all a blur

And I blame all the times we would scream and shout

Barely recall what it was all about

But I know that you had a head full of doubt

And all I wanted was for you to hear me out

'Cause I know I fucked up every now and then

But never did I think that there'd be an end

Believe me I tried but then again

Maybe we should've just stayed as friends

And I know that we can't go back in time

You done moved on I know you're doing fine

How I lost you was asinine

'Cause a love like yours girl I'll never find

I know I can't be there baby it's all right

I'll be waiting for you tonight

I pray that you'll be there when I close my eyes

Meet me in my dreams tonight

And you ever felt like you just can't go on?

Like everything in life is going wrong

You question yourself like you not as strong

Like the only way out is to write a song

And put my tears to paper

Imagine me standing on top of a skyscraper

He whispers in my ear I'm hear to save you

Have no fear I'll be your cape crusader

They say you dream of what you love the most

I close my eyes I swear I'm seeing ghosts

You were full of life you loved to toast

You was here one day the next adios

I don't even know how many days I cried

Sleepless nights I questioned God why?

'Cause nothing compares to the pain inside

I swear I'd die to be by your side

I know I can't be there baby it's all right

I'll be waiting for you tonight

I pray that you'll be there when I close my eyes

Meet me in my dreams tonight

And though I'll never know if you're listening

If this dream ain't real then let's pretend

'Cause a broken heart is hard to mend

It's that kind of shit that turns boys to men

And I know that you cared for me

I know that you always said a prayer for me

But if God ever takes away the air I breathe

And you see me in your dreams don't be scared of me

Just know that I never blamed you

I know that you always came through

I know that it must've been painful

You loved me for real and for that I'm thankful

And I'll always miss your allure

On God you can rest assured

That even though you and I don't talk no more

You'll always be the one that I adore

I know I can't be there baby it's all right

I'll be waiting for you tonight

I pray that you'll be there when I close my eyes

Meet me in my dreams tonight

I know I can't be there baby it's all right

I'll be waiting for you tonight

I pray that you'll be there when I close my eyes

Meet me in my dreams tonight
