You make me forget myself

Sometimes they’re just out of reach
The words I wanna give you
I try to fill spaces in between
Sometimes I forget how to speak

The silence gives me too much time
Contemplating different endings
Wondering what your thinking
Too much time with my own mind

I reach down and stroke your hair
It helps quiet my thoughts
It brings me a strange peace
Feeling you lying there

As our bodies become aligned  
Laying beside you
Saying I love you
Those are the words I needed to find
