If I close my eyes I see your face
  and I'm not without you
  If I try hard and concentrate
  I can still hear you speak
  I picture myself in your room by the chair
  you're smoking a cigarette
  If I close my eyes I can see your face
  you're saying, "I missed you"
  
  Dreamin', I'm always dreamin'
  
  If I close my eyes I can smell your perfume
  you look and say, "Hi baby"
  If I close my eyes pictures from China
  still hang from the wall
  I hear the dog bark I turn and say
  "What were you saying?"
  I picture you in the red chair
  inside the pale room
  
  Dreamin', I'm always dreamin'
  
  You sat in your chair with a tube in your arm
  you were so skinny
  You were still making jokes
  I don't know what drugs they had you on
  You said, "I guess this is not the time
  for long term investments"
  You were always laughing
  but you never laughing at me
  
  They say in the end the pain was so bad
  that you were screaming
  Now you were no saint but you deserved
  better than that
  From the corner I watched them removing things
  from your apartment
  But I can picture you red chair and pale room
  inside my head
  
  If I close my eyes I see your face
  and I'm not without you
  If I try hard and concentrate I can hear your voice saying
  "Who better than you"
  If I close my eyes I can't believe that
  I'm here without you
  Inside your pale room your empty red chair
  and my head
  
  Dreamin', I'm always dreamin'
  Dreamin', I'm always dreamin'
  Dreamin', I'm always dreamin'
