Sweet Dreams

Dim those lights O sweet moon
Someone I adore is going to join me
I have left that window slightly open
For her to slip into my sweet dreams 
That smile you see on my face
Is for her, as I see her approaching
I take her name and whisper 
That I have left her some space
In my dream for her dreams to fit in
As I hear my own heart beating
With a matching beat she steps right in
As she seeks out my hand
I feel the sweetness of her breath
Her head on my shoulder
Her soft hair flowing on my pillow
Her two eyes like stars shone
I see my reflection in those eyes
As she slowly drops those eyelids
And cradles me in her arms all night!
