When Lying Next To You

When Lying Next To You

I lay down beside you
Watching you sleep
Wondering what you're dreami0ng
But I do not have a clue
Your face is so peaceful
So childlike in slumber
I love you more than you'll ever know

You mutter in your sleep
And I have to smile
Because my heart leaped a little
I know that I'll be lying beside you for a while
It's incredible how watching you sleep makes me feel

I could watch you forever
Laying here together
I hope you don't open your eyes
My love for you is painfully clear
And it may be too much for you to take in

I can't stop from touching your face
My fingertips are gentle
As if you were being touched with slik

I try not to be subtle
As I snuggle closer to you
I finally know what peace feels like
And I only find it
When I'm lying next to you
