You Love Me When I'M Sleeping

You say that you want me,
You tell me you need me in you life.
But how can I stay here,
When you don’t love me right.

You comfort me when I cry,
I can see love in your eyes.
Just say those three words to me,
And I’ll stay eternally. 

You love me when I’m sleeping.
So if I just close my eyes.
Could you tell me you loved me?
I could comfort you if you were to cry.

Just say those words,
Just cry my name.
I’ll be there,
I’ll always care.

How can three words,
Cause so much compilation.
I know feel,
I just can’t deal.

Things should be  that easy. 
If we were to pretend, 
That I was sleeping.
So you could love me to no end.

So one thing, 
When I close my eyes.
Why can you love me when I’m sleeping, 
But not when I open my eyes.

Cause you love me when I’m sleeping.
But I love you all the time.
And if you could see, what I see.
You’d be sure to love with open eyes.
