Sparkle
By April, age 25, New Jersey
i had a dream last night, that i was here with you. i had a dream last night that you left too soon. before i grabbed your hand to never let go, you were already gone. i woke to find myself alone, cold and alone. oh how your eyes sparkle, sparkle for love. your eyes, they sparkle for life. a misconception, i thought they were just for me.
i saw you in a dream last night. we were sitting at the bar just like good old times. you looked at me and smiled, and said this is to us. i woke and went to turn to you. could you still love me, if you didn't stop believing. oh how your eyes sparkle, sparkle for love. oh your eyes, they sparkle for life. a misconception, i thought they were just for me.
you're everywhere with every person, every song i hear brings me back to you. what would it take to bring me back to you. could you still love me. if this was a lifetime ago, it seemed like yesterday you were here with me. could you still love me, oh could you believe. it was a lifetime ago, your eyes sparkled for me.
