In my low points, I think of my love. I love them. They love me. They make me happy.

Lying awake seeking sleep and I don't dream of you.  
  
  
I see you in my mind and I taste you on my lips.  
  
  
For you are real and I'm enamored  
  
  
You lift my sinking ship as it bobs the sea of dreams  
  
  
For I don't dream you, you're real  
  
  
Perhaps there is you in all and I just hope for some of me in you  
  
  
Lest we spend forever hoping for more than a dream.  
  
  
I don't dream, not of you  
  
  
You're my reality and I'm yours  
  
  
We sail together across the sea of dreams to land of real  
  
  
I couldn't ask for a better first mate
