Song Description

A young man tells his girlfriend he's leaving as she's sleeping.

Lyrics

You sleep so pretty 'neath the soft moonlight
I yearn to wake you but I won't tonight
Thought about us for a long, long time
It's hard but I've made up my mind

I know the road though I'm not sure where it leads
But I'm leaving so I'm wishing you sweet dreams

Spent my life in this sleepy town
It's sure been nice having you around (My darling)
But you've said you won't ever leave
And there's so much more I've just got to see (I'm sorry)

If I don't go now I won't ever go
Then I'll never know what the future holds for me
You've got your family and you've got your friends
Well I've got this voice that's been calling me again (Oh baby)

I have one life and I want all that it brings
So I'm leaving but I'm wishing you sweet dreams

Don't know how to say good-bye
So I'll kiss you one last time (My darling)
You'll find someone who'll be good for you
I'll always wonder if I've been a fool (My darling)

When you think of me know I loved you
When you think of me know I loved you
And may your life be filled with sweet dreams
And may your life be filled with sweet dreams
Sweet dreams
