Lyrics
Dreamers
Verse
If you're gonna go, then do so when I'm sleeping
But as you're headed out the door
Don't kiss me or shake me, 'cuz if you should wake me
I'd lose my pride and beg you back for more.
Verse
Don't think of how I'll look when I am crying
You've seen me cry a time or two before
Don't kiss me or shake me, now don't you dare wake me,
Allow me my pride if nothing more
Chorus
Leave me when I'm sleeping, if you decide you should go
Leave me when I'm dreaming, 'cuz dreamers are better off alone
Verse
I know your eyes go soft and warm when you see her
I've watched her blush at the mention of your name
And if it hasn't happened yet between you
I'm sure it's bound to happen all the same
Verse
You're hurting for me now, I know you're sorry
But I'm determined to be brave
You're saddened eyes don't tell good lies and I'm the first to say
The love you lose is worth the friend you save, so
Chorus
Leave me when I'm sleeping, if you decide you should go
Leave me when I'm dreaming, 'cuz dreamers are better off alone
