Can't Sleep, Can't Dream

Why can't I sleep at night?
Why can't I dream at night?
Could it be I still miss you?
Could it be I still love you?

After all these years
We've finally spoken
Now I think of what we had
And how fast the time has passed us

But our feelings stay the same
Feelings of nothing more than friendship
They will never be more than that
I know that for a fact

But look at all the time we've lost
I've had my pain and you've had yours
But I've always thought of the day you left
I had nothing left

A part of me has always hurt
My life has never been this worse
When you left I thought about
Giving up and killing myself

But as you can see
I'm still here
Alone as ever
Sad as can be

I've finally lost my way in life
There's no one left to be my guide
No one here to guide me through
The pain I've felt since I lost you

All the pain I felt since
Has slowly faded away
Yet when I'm feeling sad and blue
I realise its where I've missed you

Now I know why I can't sleep
Now I know why I can't dream
The dreams have reminded me of you
They've shown me that I still miss you
