Please don’t go to sleep tonight
Unless you’re dreaming of me
I think I’ll die before you wake
Unless you’re dreaming of me
It’s a crying shame that
Love has made me so weak
I’ll be strong if you show me in tears
how much you love me
You told me that I was going places
You told me to believe in myself
It’s a shame that
I believed in you and forgot about me
Show a selfish fool some pity
Show me in tears
It’s a shame that you must always
prove you’re stronger than me
I pity you, you pity me
So many fears
So many tears
Never let me near
I hope you’re happy here
Free from you and free from me
and no one owns anybody else
Dreams are only dreams unless you
use the strength to make them true
It’s a shame that you control me
you’ve got all my love and money
I will never be free from you
I will never see myself again
