dreaming with a broken heart

you know what they say:
when youre dreaming with a broken heart
waking up is the hardest part
and i dont know how long ive wanted to write this
but havent
i roll out of my bed
and down on my knees
wondering
was he really here
was he standing in my room?
no
he wasnt
because hes gone gone gone
and now i have to
sleep with roses
in my hands
and wonder if you
would you get them
if i did?
no
you wouldnt
because youre gone.
with a period.
its final.
im not sure if you were ever here
it shouldnt matter
if you were
cause now youre gone.
youve been gone
a while
i dont know why
i never came to terms with it before
but that shouldnt matter
cause i didnt
and now that i have
its like losing
you all over again
John Mayer (live on PBS)
