Last night I watched
you sleep as
you lay there
I dropped down to
my knees and
said a prayer
I leaned over softly
to kiss your
beautiful face
But I could not cross
the ocean of
your grace
The moonlight held
you aloft a picture
of peace
The only sound was
the soft breeze
from the east
My heart beat
down in my chest
to the rhythm of
your gentle breath
And the whole
world calmed down
or this moment of rest
Now I m I m
standing above you
trying so hard
not to tell you
I love you
And all that I
want in this
world is you
If you d only
wake up
you d know
it was true
Oh baby I love
you can be so
hard to say
Especially when
it s meant in this
strong a way
But at this moment
while you lie asleep
I am suddenly free
And my trembling
arms reach out for you
As if you could see
Now I m I m standing
above you
trying so hard not to
tell you I love you
And all that I
want in this
world is you
If you d only wake up
you d know it was true
If you d only wake up
you d know it was true
