Last night I thought things through, went over me and you and what I thought I knew
I'm looking back on the past and how nothing could tear us apart
then you had to go and break my heart
do you know your watching me fall? I bet you don't know you have it all

you were everything I could have ever imagined, maybe even more
but when you told me there was someone else, you closed that door

chorus
I broke down crying in the middle of the night
I want everything to be alright
I cried all these tears
wishing you were still here
I tried to make us happen, thought we were on our way
but there's nothing left to say, you were already on your way
before I got to wake up and realize this is all just a dream

I can't leave everything you said behind
it will help me find the reasons why
the last time I saw you was so different from the first
you didn't even care that I was standing there
but I still am afraid I'll never find someone like you again
even though the hurting won't ever end

Chorus
I broke down crying in the middle of the night
I want everything to be alright
I cried all these tears
wishing you were still here
I tried to make us happen, thought we were on our way
but there's nothing left to say, you were already on your way
before I got to wake up and realize this is all just a dream

I bought into your deep brown eyes, I never looked beyond them just saw there beauty
now I see what's behind them, pain and lies
I just wish I knew what I needed to know then
I've always said I needed you but the truth is...

Chorus
I broke down in the middle of the night
why can't everything be alright?
I cried all these tears
I want you to feel bad you left me here
I tried to make us happen, thought we were on our way
but there's a lot left to say
you were already on your way
before I even got to wake up and realize this was all just a dream

I'll wake up someday, please let it be today
until then I'll step away because I want this to be a dream
