In the Silence of the Night

The nights surrounding silence 
no words need to be said 

as I'm lying in your arms 
beneath the covers of your bed. 

A new world begins to open 
that only you and I understand 

the meaning behind every kiss 
the gentle touch of your hand. 

slowly taking one another 
to a place beyond reality 

passion takes a hold 
denying thinking of it's clarity 

we get lost within each other 
losing track of time 

holding your face in my hands 
I know that you are mine. 

the complex look in your eyes 
and I know how you feel 

and when we make love 
I can feel that it is real 

in the silence of the night 
it's then I surrender my heart 

your loving is what I crave 
especially when we're apart 

you have apart of me 
I know you that will treasure 

and we share a love 
that will shine always and forever
