While I was sleeping

While I was sleeping

While I was sleeping
Someone else took you away
And I woke up and had to face
A strange, but real and lonely day.

How can it be that I have loved you,
But you did not realise?
Now you belong to someone else
And live in paradise.

While I am banished,
Left with the tragedy
Of love, so pure and simple
But that can never come to be.

Life is a mess
And made me become a fool.
While I was sleeping, suddenly,
I lost you, mean and cruel.
