As I Lie Beside You...

As I lie beside you I look at you sleeping The twinkling of candle’s golden light The sound of the clock down the hall Chimes in another hour A melodic tone in an otherwise silent night Your smile shows that you are in another world What are you dreaming? Maybe I don’t want to know Maybe it is a memory we already shared It may be a dream of something yet to come I know that what ever it is It makes you happy Should I give you a kiss? Awake you just to tell you of my love No, I shall not bring you back to this world Relive that one memory that makes you smile Hope for the dream yet to come I shall let you sleep When the candle has long since died The sun has risen and shines into your eyes Only then will I tell you of my love And maybe, you will tell me of your dream
