The Reason

You are the reason I wake up at dawn With a smile on my face Like all my sorrow's gone. You are the reason I prepare for the coming day My cheeks full with anticipation No matter what may come my way You are the reason I get back up each time I fall 'Cause the sun, peeking from within your smile Gives me a million reasons to stand tall So I wake up, every single morning Singing thanks from out of unspoken words Calming the lingering desire to see your face And that sunny smile, like none in the world. 'Cause you give me strength By your mere existence By merely being you, perfectly you Blessed with beauty, in perfect consistence. You are the reason I pray each night the sun to make haste And bring dawn to my door again So once more, I may see your face...
