"Sleep Hides It's Eyes From Me"

"Sleep Hides It's Eyes From Me"

in the night when sleep hides it's tired eyes from me
I remember how sweet we used to be
when we loved, we knew each other well
there are no more lies when I close my weary eyes
all these tears betray all my fears that lead me to this place

Chorus:

I know our love was meant to grow
through the years despite my fears which finally made you go
every night I lie alone in pain and cry for love I will never know again

each night I try to dream of you
sleep won't come, your love for me is through
in the night when sleep hides it's tired eyes from me
I cannot bear when I think of how we used to be
I cannot bear to think of you and me

Chorus:

I still know our love was meant to grow
through the years I let me fears cause your love for me to go
every night I spend alone in pain
I cry and cry for the love I will never know again

perhaps one night I'll dream my dream of you
and sleep will come and my dream life will come true
I love you so, that is the one certain truth
and God will return your love for me to you
