Used to sleep through the night peacefully
Not a care in the world got to me
But now I lay me down to sleep
I’m afraid of what I might see
I wake up screamin` when your dream goes by

Used to feel like a man in control
Unaware of the storm in my soul
The sight of you took away my breath
I wake up screamin` when your dream goes by

Now in this dream I’m in a room
All dressed up just like a groom
Watchin` shadows dance in the ledge
Suddenly you then appear you whisper in my hear
And I jump right over the edge

Just a dream that I seem to recall
Can’t you tell me which doctor to call
Tell him please I’m not feelin too well
Everynight I’m hearin` wedding bells
I wake up screamin` when your dream goes by

I lay there in an ice cold sweat
Sheets are torn and they’re soakin` wet
I wake up screamin` when your dream goes by
I wake up screamin` when your dream goes by
I wake up screamin` when your dream goes by

I’ve come to see it’s a pattern with me
To make a fast getaway
Everytime I get a little too near to love
Somebody gets too close
The next thing I know
I’m up and gone again
Chasin’ the wind and the distant stars above

Ah girl
But I don’t know what’s been goin’ on
Since the night we met
All I know is
I ain’t runnin’ yet

Girl I can see when you look at me
You’re lookin’ for a sign
That somewhere in this heart of mine there’s a place for you
But I want you to know
When those feelings show
That’s what chases me away
But tonight I just gotta stay and see this through

Ah girl
But I don’t know what’s been goin’ on
Since the night we met
All I know is
I ain’t runnin’ yet

I ain’t runnin’ away from the love I see so deep in your eyes
I ain’t runnin’ away and I can’t even say just why
Oh I don’t know what’s been going on since the night we met
All I know is I ain’t runnin’ yet

I ain’t runnin’ away from the love I see so deep in your eyes
I ain’t runnin’ away and I can’t even say just why
Oh I don’t know what’s been going on since the night we met
All I know is I ain’t runnin’ yet

Girl I don’t know what’s been goin’ on
Since the night we met
All I know is
I ain’t runnin’ yet
