Watch Us While We Sleep
You're breathing so steady
In time, in sync
everything so quiet
no one awake.
Peacefully on the bed
I lie next to you
The intension I am safe
I dare not make a move.
The steady beat
lulls me to sleep
And I hear you stir.
You wrap your arms around me
Your embrace surrounds me
My emotions are settled
But my heart soars
Right now, in your arms, I'm only yours.
It's 3a.m. and we're awake
Caught up in time
We make no mistake.
Caressing my neck
Your breath, your lips
Across my skin
Your fingers dance
From my lips to my hips.
I have nothing to think about
It's all right here
We're holding eachother
You're whispering in my ear.
You're leaning in
And holding me tight
Never imagining
You'd kiss me tonight.
The intensity, passion
Runs through my body
I feel so much emotion
None, of which, I fear.
Time passes slowly
But quickly it seems
Not sure if this is reality
Or maybe just a dream.
I take a deep breath
As if I'm plunging into a lake
Not knowing what will come next
Or if the next breath, will I take
Something so precious as this
And make it even better?
Or will I treasure this moment
And hope it lasts forever?
I'm still in your arms
When I awake.
And the events of the night
Are not fantasy.
I can't help but reminis
On what happened last night.
You ask me how I feel?
I feel like this is right.
