How can I dream of you
How can I dream of you
by Daphne Ellen Rankin
How can I dream of you
When I can't find the will to sleep,
Nor the way to quiet
The heartfelt intensity of passion's thoughts
You stir in me?
How can I dream of you
When my eyes refuse not to stare...
When I'm sleeplessly
Up at the night,
Staring into dark
And vacant air
Above my restless head.
How can I dream of you
When my inner ear keeps hearing
Your close whispered confession,
"I love you," and thus hearing,
I find my rest
Driven out of the night
By the excitement those words inspire.
How can I dream of you?
Indeed,
How can I dream of anything else?
