Imaginary

You've misunderstood for so long now,

And I've always wanted to lie to myself.

There's nothing there between us.

But you make it so easy to pretend.

I've imagined you holding me

And I can feel the longing,

I know the craving.

Can't you be more than a dream?

I know the dawn will pierce the veil

And rain reality down on us,

But can't you delay it a little longer?

I want to hold onto the feeling

Just a little longer.

The words I know I'll never hear

Nestled between our lips

As you grace yours on mine,

And keep us in the dark.

 

In the dark where I know myself,

Where I can make you see me,

And you can make me feel

As if

This dream may one day come true.

 

You are my blissful ignorance,

And I never want to let you go.
