[English]

Spent the week writing an apology

I'll never send (never send, never send, never send)

Oh, oh, oh

Picked the clothes I would wear

If you'd ever see me again (see me again, see me again, see me again)

And I'll end up leaving the party alone

All my friends will keep asking if something's wrong

And they've heard all our history and know my regrets

But they don't know

You're stuck inside my head

And I'll see you in my dreams tonight, ah, ah, ah

And I'll wake up think I've made it right

Felt so real

Swear it was you

But then again

I always do so I'll be alright

When I see you in my dreams tonight, oh

Meet me there, you know where

Same as every night before (night before, night before, night before)

Oh, oh, oh

Drink that wine every time

'Til we kissing on the floor

And I say all the things I've been wanting to say

And you laugh like you weren't even mad anyway

Then I hear my alarm and I'm back in this place

But just for you

I'll make it through the day

And I'll see you in my dreams tonight, ah, ah, ah

And I'll wake up think I've made it right

Felt so real

Swear it was you

But then again

I always do so I'll be alright

When I see you in my dreams tonight, oh

...

And I'll see you in my dreams tonight, ah, ah, ah

And I'll wake up think I've made it right
