“MY MAN OF SWEET DREAMS”

By: Sharon-Sciarelli Halliday

(Version #3)

My love for you is so very strong
Waiting for you has been promising but so very long
Seems like you’re almost here, but suddenly you’re gone
Has this relationship been right, or has it been wrong…

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{CHORUS}
My heart is nearly at the break
And I cannot alleviate this ache
I want to believe in the promises you make
But the pain of waiting for you is so hard to take

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

You have many worlds, and I have only one
The bliss of my world is so close to none
Seems like it’s almost here, then suddenly it’s gone
When will my pain of waiting finally be done…?

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{REPEAT CHORUS}

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

[BRIDGE (?)]
So I guess you’re just…MY man of sweet dreams,
But it feels like you are tearing me apart at the seams
Can you help me try to understand
Why your promises of an everlasting love
Slip away like tiny grains of sand

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{REPEAT CHORUS}

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
But my love for you is still so very strong
And I’m trying so hard to keep holding on
Waiting for our YOU and ME, to build upon
And I’m terrified that before WE can BE
This dream will be gone

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

{REPEAT CHORUS}

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

So please tell me, is your love really what you make it seem
Or will I wake to find out what it really means
That it’s true, you’re only MY MAN OF SWEET DREAMS…
It’s so sad that you’re just...
