Nightmare Song Lyrics

by Eleni Mandell

My clock said one
When he entered through the back door
Easily, quietly
How could I have known
Heavily I slept while
Stealthily he crept from room to room

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e96405-eleni_mandell~nightmare_song_lyrics.html ]
He left my platinum diamond ring
And never checked to see my color TV
Surely I'd regret my life meant nothing to him
Anything I kept barely managed to amuse him

Oh, endlessly I miss you
Endlessly I forget you
Endlessly I forget

The minutes marched in tall black boots
Time went on and came back again
What grew in place of his heart jumped out of his chest
I would've called out
I think that I didn't

Endlessly I miss you
Endlessly I forget

His hand was full and human
Over my mouth
Rush of lightning pulled me to consciousness
Dear one, I was a friend to life
How could you let me lose it

Endlessly I forget
