If I close my eyes I see your face
|
And I'm not without you
|
If I try hard and concentrate
|
I can still hear you speak
|
I picture myself in your room by the chair
|
You're smoking a cigarette
|
If I close my eyes I can see your face
|
You're saying, "I missed you"
|
|
Dreamin', I'm always dreamin'
|
|
If I close my eyes I can smell your perfume
|
You look and say, "Hi baby"
|
If I close my eyes pictures from china
|
Still hang from the wall
|
I hear the dog bark I turn and say
|
"What were you saying? "
|
I picture you in the red chair
|
Inside the pale room
|
|
Dreamin', I'm always dreamin'
|
|
You sat in your chair with a tube in your arm
|
You were so skinny
|
You were still making jokes
|
I don't know what drugs they had you on
|
|
You said, "I guess this is not the time
|
For long term investments"
|
You were always laughing
|
But you never laughing at me
|
|
They say in the end the pain was so bad
|
That you were screaming
|
Now you were no saint but you deserved
|
Better than that
|
From the corner I watched them removing things
|
From your apartment
|
But I can picture you red chair and pale room
|
Inside my head
|
|
If I close my eyes I see your face
|
And I'm not without you
|
If I try hard and concentrate I can hear your voice saying
|
"Who better than you"
|
If I close my eyes I can't believe that
|
I'm here without you
|
Inside your pale room your empty red chair
|
And my head
|
|
Dreamin', I'm always dreamin'
|
Dreamin', I'm always dreamin'
|
Dreamin', I'm always dreamin'
|
