**[Verse 1]**
This morning I woke up, the sun cut through the blinds
Found a note on the pillow where you used to lay your head at night
Just a few cold lines saying you were leaving
I’ve read it a hundred times, still don’t know what it means

All your clothes are gone, closet hanging bare
Your perfume’s fading but it’s still lingering in the air
Every corner of this house feels empty without you
I don’t know what I did, but I know I sure miss you

**[Chorus]**
Tell me I was dreaming
That you didn’t leave me here to cry
Oh tell me I was dreaming
Tell me that you didn’t say goodbye
Tell me you’ll come walking through that door
Like you’ve done a thousand times before
Tell me I was dreaming… please lie

**[Verse 2]**
I keep replaying every word we said last night
Looking for the moment everything stopped feeling right
Was it something I forgot, or something I said wrong?
Baby, I’d fix it all if you’d just come back home

The coffee’s still brewing for two like a fool
Your side of the bed’s cold, but I can’t break the rule
Of reaching for you in the dark when the hurting gets too loud
I’m lost here without you, drowning in this crowd

**[Chorus]**
Tell me I was dreaming
That you didn’t leave me here to cry
Oh tell me I was dreaming
Tell me that you didn’t say goodbye
Tell me you’ll come walking through that door
Like you’ve done a thousand times before
Tell me I was dreaming… please lie

**[Bridge]**
If this is real, then I don’t want to wake
I’d rather stay asleep than face another day this way
Just one more night pretending you’re still mine
Come whisper in my ear that everything’s still fine

**[Final Chorus]**
Tell me I was dreaming
That you didn’t pack your things and drive away
Oh tell me I was dreaming
Tell me you’re not really gone today
Come lay your head down here by my side
And tell me all those words were just a lie
Tell me I was dreaming…
Baby, tell me I was dreaming
Please… just tell me I was dreaming
