Lyrics

[Verse 1]
How come I always seem to think of you at this time of night?
And 'bout your daddy, man, I hope he's not out still getting high
I'm asking 'round about the Bible, wasn't easy but I
Convinced myself you're somewhere better, God, I hope that I'm right
[PreChorus]
I met my lover at the bar, it's like I looked in your eyes
My phone was ringing had a feeling in the back of my mind
He broke the news, I kept my cool but I was shaking inside
We used to wonder what came after love, I hope you're alright
I hope you're alright
[Chorus]
When I dream I see your face
But you just don't look the same
And I know you'll start to fade when I wake up
[Verse 2]
We were just kids when Alex snitched, I told the cops it was mine
You're moving faster, skipping classes, but you swore you were fine
You met my dad tripping on acid that was crossing the line
But I didn't think you had a problem, it took over your life
[PreChorus]
Sometimes I wonder if the thought was ever crossing your mind
I'd hate to think that I'm a reason you didn't make it that night
I wish I'd known how this could go, I kept ignoring the signs
They say you'll end up somewhere better, love, I hope you're alright
I hope you're alright
[Chorus]
When I dream I see your face
But you just don't look the same and I know you'll start to fade when I wake up
When I dream I see your face
But you just don't look the same and I know you'll start to fade when I wake up
When I wake up
When I wake up
When I wake up
[Bridge]
You keep saying all the right things
So we end up in all the wrong places
Told me you would always be safe but
I don't know where you are right now
You keep saying all the right things
So we end up in all the wrong places
Told me you would always be safe but
I don't know where you are right now
And I'm too young to be this stressed out
Yeah, I'm too young to be this stressed out
I'm too young to be this stressed out
I'm too young
[Chorus]
When I dream I see your face
But you just don't look the same and I know you'll start to fade when I wake up
When I dream I see your face
But you just don't look the same and I know you'll start to fade when I wake up
When I wake up
When I wake up
When I wake up
