You Again

Richard Shindell

You again
I dreamed of you again
This time you seemed so real
Winking back at me

My old friend
I feel your ghost again
When I thought you'd gone for real
I'd never say for good

Not I catch my breath and wait
Wide-eyed and half awake

Just the wind
Blows through my dreams again
Thought I had closed the window tight
Against the night

Now I catch my breath and wait
Wide-eyed and wide awake

But you are half a world away
And there is little now that I can say
But that I will always love you
And I'll always miss
And you are always welcome here
You are always welcome here
