I watch you sleeping silently
As the morning starts to break.
Your head is resting lightly
On my arm, and your lovely hair
Flows freely across the pillow.
A smile is on your lips,
And I wonder if you’re dreaming
Of the love we shared last night.
The sun begins to shine
Through the bedroom window
And brighten your lovely face.
I watch you stir as you open
Your eyes, and you smile
As you look into mine.
