Lying Awake

By DarkNTormented

your eyes closed so tight
my angel in the night
tucked to perfectly under the sheets
god am i glad we did meet
snuggled up so close i can barely breath
having you next to me is all I'll ever need

lying so perfectly sleeping so sound
all through with the leaps and bounds
dreaming of thoughts you could only dream
think of clever, devised schemes
or dreaming of the one you love so
"I'll always be right here." just so you know

looking so innocent and without a care
a life with you i want to share
the full moon shines down upon your face
the smile you got i wouldnt erase
lying here looking at you
thinkin about all the things we could do

tears of happiness run from my eyes
just looking at you
just being next to you
sleeping so sound you have no clue

lying next to you
is all i'll ever need
feeling your heart beat
right next to mine
having you now makes it all fine

illusions dancing around in your head
while you are sleeping softly in your bed
with your eyes close so tight
my angel in the night
