Last Night
Last night I watched you sleep as you lay there
I dropped down to my knees and said a prayer

I leaned over softly to kiss your beautiful face
But I could not cross the ocean of your grace

The moonlight held you aloft a picture of peace
The only sound was the soft breeze from the east

My heart beat down in my chest
to the rhythm of your gentle breath
And the whole world calmed down
or this moment of rest

Now I'm...I'm standing above you
trying so hard not to tell you I love you
And all that I want in this world is you

If you'd only wake up
you'd know it was true

Oh baby I love you can be so hard to say
Especially when it's meant in this strong a way

But at this moment
while you lie asleep I am suddenly free
And my trembling arms reach out for you
As if you could see

Now I'm...I'm standing above you
trying so hard not to tell you I love you
And all that I want in this world is you

If you'd only wake up
you'd know it was true

If you'd only wake up
you'd know it was true
