"If I Could Dream You"

If I could dream you,
have you here with me,
just to see you,
and listen to you breathe;
Feel your heart beating,
with kisses to keep,
touch you softly,
and love you in your sleep.

Just to hold you close,
remove every fear,
just to know you,
and have you safely here;
I would protect you,
keep you from harm's way,
slay the demons,
if you would but just stay.

If it was perfect,
the life which we live,
you would be mine,
and love ours to give;
In the dark of every night,
to awaken the fantasy,
I would dream you,
and have you here with me.
