The phone rings, I know it's you
before I even say hello
You ask me how I am, I say I'm fine
you talk about what's new,
I laugh and say that's cool
But I wonder if you wonder
about the dreams I had
with white horses and red roses

If I'm a fool for missing you
and thinking about what I'll do
when you're honest to God gone
No second to last chance, no more late nights
spent together dreaming dreans
with white horses and red roses

You hear the tears in my voice
that I've been trying to hide and say
I'm just tired, working a lot
Hide the silly, simple part of me
that wished a little girl's dream of
happy ever after
with white horses and red roses

You ask if I'm okay, I try and mean it when I say yes
you know it's a lie but you let it slide
I don't want you that close to me anymore
I'll get caught and you won't let me go
if I let myself think you're safe enough to trust
to say that I still love you
that you've got a piece of my heart still
and I'll miss you like hell if you go
Cause I'll be letting go of that silly little dream
with white horses and red roses
