Morning Beauty

I loved you in the morning When first I saw you there With eyes all wide and sleepy And your lovely ruffled hair No make-up on your smiling face Well I say none there was a trace A hint of shadow above your eye I looked at you and felt a sigh Of how good it was to be here And what beauty do I see In this slim form before me I held you closer to me Felt the beating of your heart I breathed your air And touched your hair I prayed that we would never part
