Whilst You Were Sleeping
Last night whilst you were sleeping
I cried a little, my heart raced
As I stroked the softness of your golden skin
I lay there listening to you breathe, as my love
For you gently sang inside of me
I cried because luck has touched me, finally
And brought to me a soul
That blesses the world
Just by caring so naturally
I'm in love
The lord sent you
From the heavens above
I'm lost
In a body full of tingles
Just by looking at you
I'm numb
To any other pain
But losing you
I'm happy
To be alive, I just want to share your glow
With the world, maybe, just to see them smile as I do
You see, I've been blessed with having you by my side
That's why last night whilst you were sleeping,
I kissed you, as I cried.
