Slipped Away

Awaken by a ringing in my ear
Light protrudes into my eye
And a soft voice speaks sincere
It’s the same tone that soothed me yesterday
As my sight became clear
I never thought it would go this way
As my heart sinks low beneath the couch
She nervously begins to speak
Of how her hearts been running about
What I thought was so right
Was meant only for my dream
I was caught in a moment
My heart untied at the seam
(chorus)
Her feelings vibrate a frequency
Much different than my dream made clear
The only one that has felt right to me
She slipped away and is no longer here
Silence grows heavier by the hand
She never ask me how I feel
I just say I understand
When my eyes were shut
She held on, nothing came between
If holding on to here were a dream
I’d rather sleep for eternity
