Used to sleep through the night peacefully
Not a care in the world got to me
But now I lay me down to sleep I'm afraid of what I might see
I wake up screaming when your dream goes by

Used to feel like a man in control unaware of the storm in my soul
The sight of you took away my breath looked so good scared me half to death
I wake up screaming when your dream goes by

Now is this dream I'm in a room all dressed up just like a groom
Watching shadows dancing on the ledge
When suddenly you then appear you whisper in my ear
And I jump right over the edge

Just a dream that I seem to recall won't you tell me which doctor to call
Tell him please I don't feel too well every night I'm hearing wedding bells
I wake up screaming when your dream goes by
[ guitar ]
I lay there in an ice cold sweat sheets are torn and soaking wet
I wake up screaming when your dream goes by
I wake up screaming when your dream goes by
I wake up screaming when your dream goes by

I'm gonna try and stay up all night long honey just for you
Just for you don't you ever leave me alone
