Every night I close my eyes,
I tell myself you are no longer mine.
Drifting into my dream,
Here again, your face is seen.
My heart beats in delight,
To see the innocent youthful smile I held tight.
Holding hands, making plans,
Choosing the wedding song and bands.
Seeing you under the veil,
Realising it was an ancient tale.
A teardrop crawls,
My heart aches, a feeling has to be withdrawn.
So I can live another day in lies,
Lying to myself, you are significant no more.
Every night I close my eyes,
I remind myself you will never be mine.
