Royal Red - Emily Davis

I dreamt about you last night

My subconscious came to life

And I haven’t slept a wink since

You were dancing inside my head

Inside my head

And this morning the sheets were gone

Someone spread them across my lawn

And it’s roses were at my bed

Forming patterns of royal red

Royal red

Is it true that our dreams are separate beings

Birthed by ambition and nourished by things

Like love and devotion

And every other emotion ever conjured

Or am I just absurd?

The sky that day was so blue

The clouds formed pictures of you

I heard birds singing our songs

And I couldn’t help but sing along

Sing along

And tonight when I fall asleep

Your face will be the first thing I see

And I’ll never want to leave my bed

I’ll be dreaming in Royal Red

Royal red

Is it true that our dreams are separate beings

Birthed by ambition and nourished by things

Like love and devotion

And every other emotion ever conjured

Or am I just absurd?

Royal red

Royal red

Royal red
