Song for a Sleeping Girl

I had to taste

To see it close

But you're already there right next to me

How could you ever find a better place to be?

You're breathing slowly

I let you hold me

I left you so many times while you were next to me

Your brown hair on the bed I wanted you to see

This is a song

For a silent sleeping girl

She wants nothing

But to wake and find you there

The words you whisper

They fade in morning

Then I look at her, at her sleeping face

Her foot resting in mine and then I know my place

This is a song

For a silent sleeping girl

She wants nothing

But to wake and find you there

You there

You there
