I Give My Soul To You

Sleeping, dreaming
I see you, soft
Slipping into silken dreams
I lie here with you
I can only hope
That I lie inside of you, too

Can I nestle into your soul?
You already have mine
Do you know
That I would slumber forever
If only to be by your side?

My love, my heart drips gold
And overflows with 
The thought of you
If only I could
Lie here like this,
Wrapped up in you,
Until the universe decides
That I must return my energy
To whence it came

Darling, I would
I can never return that energy
Which gives life to my soul-
That energy is no longer
Mine to give
What once was mine
Is so willingly yours
