I wake up late in the night
But I cannot find you here
I wish I could see you beside me
I close my eyes with tears

Then I shut my eyes tightly
So I can go on dreaming of you
But the time is running away
And there's nothing else for me to do

I see the raindrops in my window,
I remember your face close to mine
Your sweaty body lying over me
And I wonder if there will be a next time

Only my desperate dreams
My soul is crying for you
Only desperate and lonely dreams
I'll love you till my life is through

I see my teardrops in the mirror
They fall for every unfinished dream
The night's still so dark and empty
I hope and wish to be with you again

Only my desperate dreams
My soul is crying for you
Only desperate and lonely dreams
I'll love you till my life is through

The morning only reminds me
Will be another sad day without you
Lonely and unfinished dreams
I cannot longer ease my heart without you
