Melancholy Dreams

As I drift away 

I hear your laughter

I can feel the rhythm

When the night takes me away 

From the light of day 

I want to hold on to the images

Of us talking animatedly 

When you were here

I remember we were lively 

You feel too far away 

You're in a new city 

I'm still a girl in exile

But thinking of you 

Causes me to smile 

Despite our hearts 

Being miles apart
