Perchance to Dream
Written by omarshat

When I sleep at night
You plague my dreams
You ask me for my help
And tell me that it?s urgent
You cry out in fear?or is it pain?

You describe to me a tranquil scene,
A meadow near a stream
Yet in danger is what you seem to be
I feel compelled to help you,
The unknown lady of my dreams

Each night I sleep, like clockwork
You appeal to me, you beg, you plead
Am I the guy you really need?
Could there be some other one
Someone who isn?t me

The dream I had last night,
By far the most intense,
Your words, they came like gentle rain
But yet again you asked of me
To venture forth and save your life

Your voice, so comforting, and so familiar
So kind and sweet, like some girl I?m supposed to meet
Could you be her, am I still me?
Is there still time, who could you be?
It all matters not right now

Word going ?round this neighboring town
Is that a special gal has been snatched
Least that?s what I heard from some talking dog
And this guy who looked like Mr. T
Could she be you, I?m sure I?m still me?

The night, she soon will fall
I?ll take some comfort from my sleep
Until tomorrow, I hope that you?ll be safe
When I storm down whatever door keeps you caged?but until then?
Would you speak to me again, on this cold and lonely night?
