Come hold me closely through the night.
I long to feel you near.
Then let me see you smiling as
I whisper in your ear.
The happiness I’ve found with you
Is more than I deserve.
The memory of times we share
Is something I’ll preserve.
I pray that soon the time will come
When we will never part,
For you have made my life complete
And overwhelmed my heart.
