Wide Awake

i saw you there in your black dress,
and hoped before we spoke i'd catch my breath
the wind was all around...
i know that its an old line,
but when you brushed your hair back from your eyes,
it felt like i was crying. oh, what you do to me.

i'm wide awake and still your in my dreams.
you're by my side inside my reverie.
i say my prayers, and try to sleep.

the road was bending and the sky was blue,
and you ran your hand across my tattoo.
i couldn't even say my name...
you've been running in my veins again.
somehow my fantasy and my best friend.
Lord be my guide. oh, what you do to me.

i wish i knew what God is doing here.
the light i thought i saw is not so clear.
so day to day i carry on...
