While You Were Sleeping
I watched you while you were sleeping,
Even though I was not there.
I watched you while you were sleeping,
Just watched you breathe your air.
I kissed you while you were sleeping,
Even though I was not there.
I kissed you while you were sleeping,
Then ran my fingers through your hair.
I held you while you were sleeping,
Even though I was not there.
I held you while you were sleeping,
You know I took great care.
I missed you while you were sleeping,
Because I was not there.
I missed you while you were sleeping,
There’s so much I want to share.
So think of me while you’re sleeping,
I will be well aware.
Think of me while you’re sleeping,
And I will be there.
