I lie at night beside you,
and watch you while you sleep.
I watch you as you smile so sweet,
within your dreams so deep.
Your hair as light as angels wings,
falls softly by my side,
Its touch burns warm inside my soul
and so my heart can't hide.
Your beautiful as none have been
though sleep consumes you now,
And I smile at wonder that is you
and miss you even now.
I hold you in my arms with love
to keep you ever near,
And security can there be found
to keep away your fear.
You sleep, and yet I kiss your brow,
and taste your tepid lip
I say good night to you my love
and into sleep, I slip.
