I thought she left alone last night
To bed my greatest fear
I know I don't reserve the right
By simply hoping he's not here

Please don't say that you've seen him
She's probably got her life laid out
Just let me dream a little more

My heart takes up all my strength
No more can I think of them
No more can I hold her in my thoughts
Don't say that she needs him
That she needs him
That she needs him

He probably lives alone, you know
How am I ever to compare?
Oh, why can't she be alone for good
So I can dream, and never dare

Please don't say that you've seen him
She's probably got her life laid out
Just let me dream a little more

My heart takes up all my strength
No more can I think of them
No more can I hold her in my thoughts
Don't say that she needs him
That she needs him

Nobody knows
I wish she could
Hold me close
As if she would

Nobody knows
How good she could
Hold me close
Holding me close

My heart takes up all my strength
No more can I think of them
No more can I hold her in my thoughts
Don't say that she needs him
That he needs her
