Woke up from a kiss at 2AM
Swear that I could taste your lips again
Can't recall a time I've been so scared
Reaching over knowing you're not there

Can I get a monster in the closet
A terror in the night
Footsteps in the hallway
'Stead of this ghost hear by my side
I'd rather have a nightmare
And know it wasn't true
Than dream these sweet dreams about you

We were sitting in a house on Crater Lake
Drinking coffee, talking 'bout our day
I could see forever in your eyes
That's why it hurts so bad to open mine (to open mine)

Can I get a monster in the closet
A terror in the night
Footsteps in the hallway
'Stead of this ghost hear by my side
I'd rather have a nightmare
And know it wasn't true
Than dream these sweet dreams about you

(I'd rather have a nightmare)
(I'd rather have a nightmare)

Woke up from a kiss at 2AM
Wish that I could taste your lips again
But I can't

So can I get a monster in the closet
A terror in the night
Footsteps in the hallway
'Stead of this ghost hear by my side
I'd rather have a nightmare
And know it wasn't true
Than dream these sweet dreams about you
Than dream these sweet dreams about you
