Dream Of Me Tonight
Peer into the Nightmare with your heart's eye!
Leave your dark dreams of pain and tears,
find my hand and take hold. Dream with me tonight.
Look for the wonder, majesty and delight
to dance where only angels would dare.
Behold the Void; open your shut eyes
and see the battle for your soul. He lies,
hoping to beat and rape you without care,
whispering, "Take hold and love me tonight
because I need you," Do you think he might
then leave you alone, and in peace? Beware!--
Stare into Gehenna with tearful eyes.
Spread wide your wings to heaven and fly;
abandon his promise of love's despair.
Let go his hand and dream with me tonight
and embrace my sacred oath. My love, delight
that someone watches you in the night, out there.
Look beyond his Nightmare with your heart's eye!
Find my hand and take hold. Dream of me tonight.
