XV - When I Dream lyrics
[XV - When I Dream lyrics]
When I close my eyes I see your face
I'm just not sure how much a heart can mean
Sometimes I can't wait to sleep like
I can't wait to be
In your arms grandmoms I love you
Though I hate to leave
When my eyes open realities sent sent for me
Tellin' me your no longer here to
Chill and sit wit me
I still remember that dream in 2003
You visited my place, a week after your wake
I can't still see your clothes
Still see your face
You came in your wheelchair
With banana nut cake
You hugged me told me you loved me
I smiled and said thanks
For everything you did for me
Everything you gave
I'm talkin' bout the time
Not the physical things
I mean your trait's your place
The spiritual things
I mean anything I wanted
You gave me those things
3 o clock in the mornin'
Fixed me cookies n cremes
When I reach heavens gate I'm
Gonna look for your wings
But til then I can't wait to
Go to sleep when I dream of you
When I close my eyes I see your face
I'm just not sure how much a heart can mean
I mean so much has happened since your gone
I can't wait to go to sleep tonight
And tell you all about the songs
I'm tellin' the world what you
Did However I can
How you raised the kid I was
To the man that I am
You held me when I was a baby
Held me when I was grown
Let me know that you were there
When I felt all alone
Your responsible for me havin'
The family I have
My caring aunts and uncles who
Made up for my dad
You was my valentine you was my Santa Clause
You was my clarity when they
Can't understand at all
And I cry sometimes 'cuz I hate you gone
But, I still get to see you when I see my mom
I know you see me and my
Brothers like I'm proud of y'all
They'd see your face if they can peek
And just see through my heart
And though I wish that you were here
I know you see it all
'Cuz you smilin' when we chillin'
In my sleep and talk when I dream
When I close my eyes I see your face
I'm just not sure how much a heart can mean
Momma you've been my backbone
I wanna make that known
Even through all the drama I
Brought it back home
You were the strongest woman I ever seen
And I respect you for it all
Even when you was mean
I was a teen you still
Helped me follow my dream
Raised 4 kids 4 black men to achieve
Who would believe who would believe
You did it all by yourself Mama
With no welfare
You never asked for help mama
You had the lord on your
Side 'cuz you an angel
And sometimes I just can't do
Nothin' but thank you
Sometimes my dreams have me scared
That they'll take you
It brings me to tears when I
Think I said I hate you
I love my grandma for the
Fact that she made you
And transferred the love into you
That she gave you
Name where you wanna go and
That's where I'll take you
You gave me everything that I needed
Now I'm gon' repay you
When I close my eyes I see your face
I'm just not sure how much a heart can mean
I'm just not sure how much a heart can mean
Sometimes I can't wait to sleep like
I can't wait to be
In your arms grandmoms I love you
Though I hate to leave
When my eyes open realities sent sent for me
Tellin' me your no longer here to
Chill and sit wit me
I still remember that dream in 2003
You visited my place, a week after your wake
I can't still see your clothes
Still see your face
You came in your wheelchair
