Hard contemporary folk and acoustic rock
Lyrics
I woke up from a bad dream
Reached out to touch your skin
The emptiness beside me
Matched the emptiness within
Our sweet dreams have slipped away
While I've tried to hold them tight
Only cold sheets and memories
Share my bed tonight
Chorus:
Cold sheets and memories
From a fire that once burned
Though desire came easy
It's a hard lesson learned
I loved her in the evening
But she was gone by morning light
Only cold sheets and memories
Share my bed tonight
The pillow where her head laid
Still offers some relief
It holds the scent of her perfume
And the indent from her cheek
I wonder every now and then
If she ever cared for me
Then my bed reminds me
With cold sheets and memories
CHORUS
And I wonder how would it feel
Just to make believe
That these old sheets were still warm
And we were building memories
Is this my reality
Or if it's just a dream
I'm hoping for the sake of me
My cold sheets and memories
CHORUS
