Falling asleep with my lips on your lips

Might be my favorite part

Or lying for hours with your hand in my hand

And your head upon my heart

Wrapped up in each other’s arms so close

your body feels like my body

as every breath and heartbeat comes and goes

your body moves with my body

Come into my arms

I will hold you tight

Through the night

I will hold you close

Your body next to my body

Come into my arms

I will hold you through the night

Feeling the warmth of your breath on my skin

Touching me with your sighs

Where do you end and where do I begin

as I hold you through the night
