Holding You Tonight

Lying here beside you,
Your head resting on my arm,
Oh! How you’re body feels so warm,
Your hair flowing softly around me.

I feel you moving closer,
You’re perfume lingering all around me,
And as you looked into my eyes,
I knew what you're going to say.

Holding you tonight,
Makes me feel all warm inside,
And baby if I could,
I’d be here, till the end of time,
Holding you tonight,
I just know that I could,
Drift off to sleep,
Feeling safe, just knowing that you’re mine.

When I reached out to touch you,
You left me know that you were there,
And as I looked into you’re eyes,
You knew what I was going to say.

Holding you tonight,
Makes me feel all warm inside,
And baby if I could,
I’d be here, till the end of time,
Holding you tonight,
I just know that I could,
Drift off to sleep,
Feeling safe, just knowing that you’re mine.

Baby! I Love You!
