As I close my eyes, I see your face.
The same each night, dancing before me.
Your sparkling eyes and fair hair warm my heart,
Stirring feelings I thought long dead.

I cannot forget your face,
I cannot recall your name,
You speak words that I don't remember,
But each breath just fans the flames.

Why does your visage haunt me so?
Why do the waking hours not abolish this phantom?
Why do I love so much,
A face that is naught but a dream?

I cannot forget your face,
I cannot recall your name,
I hope, I fear, with baited breath,
That each night is the same.

Is this premonition?
Will I one day look upon that face in truth?
You haunt me so,
You hound my every thought.

I cannot forget your face,
I cannot recall your name,
You are just a phantom of my dreams,
Yet, I love you all the same.
