Hug Me Not Only in Dreams

Ah, ah
How many times did you reach for me
In the shadows where no one could see?
A quiet ache
A silent plea
But your arms stayed empty
Still empty

In the silent room
The coldest nights
Your whispers linger
But you're out of sight

Hug me in real life
Not in dreams
Hold me where the sunlight gleams
Not just in sorrow
Not just in pain
Hug me in the storm
In the rain
Hug me when you are happy
Hug me
Even if you want to stay silent

You called my name in the quiet dark
A fragile echo
A fleeting spark
But when the Sun rose
You looked away
Why couldn't you stay?
Just stay?

Hug me in real life
Not in dreams
Hold me where the sunlight gleams
Not just in sorrow
Not just in pain
Hug me in the storm
In the rain
Hug me when you are happy
Hug me
Even if you want to stay silent

Your silence
It speaks in a thousand feelings
A melody of love you refuse to use
Are you scared?
Are you lost?
Are you waiting too?
To hug me now?
To help overcome this?

Hug me in real life
Not in dreams
Hold me where the sunlight gleams
Not just in sorrow
Not just in pain
Hug me in the storm
In the rain
Hug me when you are happy
Hug me, even if you want to stay silent
A hug can be the language of your silence
Hug me in real life
Not in dreams
Dreams
