Dream of Me Holding Absence

[Verse 1]
If sleep's the cousin of death
Relieve me of all of my stress
I've been waiting for you to put me to rest

[Chorus]
Two for joy, one for sorrow
She said, "I loved you yesterday, but I can't love you tomorrow"

[Verse 2]
The gentle hands of time tie your hands to mine
Once love is canonized, the spark you once had dies
You've been waiting, to wake from the never end

[Chorus]
Two for joy, one for sorrow
She said, "I loved you yesterday, but I can't love you tomorrow"
Too little, too late is all that I will ever be
When you sleep forever, dream of me

[Bridge]
When all is said and done
We ache in unison
Your absence, bittersweet
It lingers, always
