[Verse 1: Male] You're somewhere I can't follow Where daylight doesn't reach I hold you in the quiet hours Just beyond my reach [Verse 2: Female] I wake up almost certain Your hand was in my hair The garden that we planted once Still blooms when you're not there [Chorus: Both, overlapping harmonies] Baby, I can only love you in my dreams Where distance falls away like autumn leaves In sleep I find the words I cannot say Baby, I can only love you When the world fades away [Verse 3: Male] I've memorized your breathing The weight of what we lost Some things grow sweeter in their absence Worth whatever cost [Verse 4: Female] The rain falls soft this evening Each drop a small regret But even sorrow waters something I'm not finished with it yet [Chorus: Both, overlapping harmonies] Baby, I can only love you in my dreams Where distance falls away like autumn leaves In sleep I find the words I cannot say Baby, I can only love you When the world fades away [Bridge: Female lead, Male harmony] And maybe that's enough for now This ache that keeps me true Maybe loving from this far Is all we're meant to do [Bridge: Male lead, Female harmony] I'm learning how to hold you In this space between The waking and the wanting The real and the unseen [Final Chorus: Both, tightly harmonized] Baby, I can only love you in my dreams Where distance falls away like autumn leaves In sleep I find the words I cannot say Baby, I can only love you Baby, I can only love you When the world fades away [Outro: Both, barely whispered] When the world fades away
