Reverie
Silent Auction Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I watch you sleep and ponder your mind
Your dreams are fleeting scene to scene
Do your visions ever show you me?
I suffer no more when you're near me
Hold my hand, take my life
I know I'm in your dreams at night
Take my hand, hold me tight
You only make life so worth living
You lift me
You lift me higher than I’ve ever known
You take me
You take me places I have never gone
You bring me
You bring me to a level that’s unknown
You saved me
You saved me from myself and brought me home
You bring me
You bring me to a level that’s unknown
You saved me
You saved me from myself and brought me home
Sitting bedside in your room
Thinking how good my life’s been with you
All your kindness grants me bliss
All you ask from me is one more kiss
I suffer no more when you’re near me
Take my hand, hold me tight
You only make life so worth living.
You lift me
You lift me up above the cloudy sky
You give me
You give me intoxicating paradise
You bring me
You bring me to heaven’s edge into the night
You give me
You give me a reason to endure my life
You smile gently as you’re dreaming
Spread your wings through the sky
and make the wind slow down in time
To carry onward to my safety
You teach me love in your dreams
A perfect life with you it seems
