If i close my eyes i see your face

And i'm not without you

If i try hard and concentrate

I can still hear you speak

I picture myself in your room by the chair

You're smoking a cigarette

If i close my eyes i can see your face

You're saying, "i missed you"



Dreamin', i'm always dreamin'



If i close my eyes i can smell your perfume

You look and say, "hi baby"

If i close my eyes pictures from china

Still hang from the wall

I hear the dog bark i turn and say

"what were you saying?"

I picture you in the red chair

Inside the pale room



Dreamin', i'm always dreamin'



You sat in your chair with a tube in your arm

You were so skinny

You were still making jokes

I don't know what drugs they had you on

You said, "i guess this is not the time

For long term investments"

You were always laughing

But you never laughing at me



They say in the end the pain was so bad

That you were screaming

Now you were no saint but you deserved

Better than that

From the corner i watched them removing things

From your apartment

But i can picture you red chair and pale room

Inside my head



If i close my eyes i see your face

And i'm not without you

If i try hard and concentrate i can hear your voice saying

"who better than you"

If i close my eyes i can't believe that

I'm here without you

Inside your pale room your empty red chair

And my head



Dreamin', i'm always dreamin'

Dreamin', i'm always dreamin'

Dreamin', i'm always dreamin'
