Bedtime

I drive through the valley Through the silhouette of mountains Thirsting for truth & happiness Hoping to find that fountain In your arms, in your smile In your warmth, in your love Wanting to find contentment In all of the above I love to fall asleep with you With you wrapped around me Skin on skin, your breath on my neck A sweet silence, calm like the sea Our hands are holding I hear you whisper goodnight You give me sweet memories, A reason to write And in our sleep I don’t worry about my past Under blankets, we're wrapped up tight And I'm just hoping it will last
