Essence of Soft Shadows In Our Heart

When you call me in your dreams I will come
And find my way through valleys in your mind
To reach you breathless before I succumb
With every kiss, you've offered to remind
Where softest sighs will echo through the night
And filter through love's wish of misty dreams
So our souls can be lovers free in flight 
And soar on dreamers eyes of brightest beams
Keep our dreams in love's dim lit realm of shade
When eyes are closed and drifting in our sleep
From our lonely distant miles, we have made
Tethered to our loneliness we're asleep
This essence of soft shadows from our heart
To love inside our dreams when we're apart
