Happy Dream Angel

I sat in bed the other night, The room only lit by the moonlight. I shut my eyes but couldn't sleep I looked to the ceiling and began to think But before I could sleep, I saw a shadow Almost like peter pan The shadow was there But Without a man Out of bed I did leap, But the shadow moved, quickly on its feet I couldn't see what it could be I thought my head was playing tricks on me Back into bed I got The shadow gone, or so I thought The shadow then sat on my bed I turned and listened to what it said I am not here, yes that’s true You’re not going mad, I’m part of you I’m the part that comes out to play I’m the good in all your bad days Now don’t freak out, let me say You’re dreaming now, a world away. But as you sleep, out I come A happy dream angel to get rid of the glum It’s not all about fairy dust and glee You my friend hold the key Somewhere deep inside of you Is a little girl trying to get through? The one who was always happy and fun The one who loved to play and dance The one who too used to cry at night The one like you, who knows how to fight, And then in the corner what did I see A little girl who used to be me, I grabbed her hand and gave her hug A little girl I wanted to love But again I looked and all I could see Was how much she’s gonna hate being me So happy and joyful now it’s true But wait she’s 30…Bipolar now it’s over to you. In all this upset the shadow stepped in And parted me and the girl and said let me begin “You both can live here happily together, And let memories bring you closer than ever”. When you’re feeling sad and blue Think of the little girl who lives inside of you At night she always comes out to play But your sadness sometimes keeps her locked away. A happy dream angel that I am, Now both of you hold out your hand Let’s go fly and be free Let’s go and experience what real happiness can be So off we flew, to where I don’t know, Me and the girl laughing all the way through Back in the bedroom all in flash It was time to say bye to the angel of dreams A ringing in the background began to distract I woke in bed alarm clock in hand I jumped up and the girl was nowhere to be seen Neither was the angel who protects my dreams Another day like no other it’s true Except no one knows what I've been through For what I saw last night will always be… What reunited the little girl in me x
