Often I’ve laid awake at night
Thinking about you only,
And smiling at the thought
Of the love I feel for you.
I toss and turn, trying to sleep,
But you remain in my thoughts.
It would truly be unjust
To say I’m complaining,
For it is always pleasant
For me to think of you at night,
And though I may not sleep well,
I do manage to smile!
