While you sleep wrapped in the afterglow of passion
I slip away to inhale the silence of a new day,
watching the flow of the current in the early morning quiet
the warmth of your kiss still lingers on my lips,
thinking of your gentle touch as it trailed fire across my skin
I feel my spirit drawn back steadily to you
the things you do and say to make me feel beautiful
have awakened me to the joy of being a woman,
feelings missing from my life until you wandered in
from our first night, as we talked until the sun rose above the hills
you were so patient, gently coaxing me to share my dreams
breaking down the walls built by years of loneliness and mistrust
the nights we've spent wrapped in each other's arms
as you gently teased away my shyness, desire blossomed deep within
tending to my needs, igniting a flame you so eagerly fanned
you can carry me to heaven with a touch, as
the power of your love weaves a web of magic to surround us
for the first time in my life I feel secure
when I look into your eyes I see forever waiting there
you have become my future, my past, my present
you are my everything...
