NOT a song

Sleep my love till morning comes,

And dawn kisses the dreams from your eyes,

For even though I am no longer there,

My thoughts are with you still.

In darkness and dreams we share a life-time,

Though in waking we are miles away,

The world of the rational,

Holds no sway over the rhythms of our hearts.

I'll come to you when you close your eyes,

Each night as you lay sleeping,

For your soul calls to mine,

And I am bound by my need for you.

Kisses and caresses,

The sweet velvet touches,

Soft murmured promises,

The language of passion.

The tears and the longing,

The hoping and waiting,

The sweet anticipation,

Till we are together again.

Remember the one who longs for you,

Remember me,

For in the darkness I wait for you,

Wanting only to be filled with your sweet dreams.
