I had to taste
To see it close
But you’re already there

Right next to me
How could you ever find
A better place to be

You’re breathing slowly
I let you hold me
I left you so many times

While you were next to me
Your brown hair on the bed
I wanted you to see

This is a song
For a silent sleeping girl
She wants nothing

But to wake and find you there
The words you whisper
They fade in morning

And when I look at her
And her sleeping face
Her foot resting in mine

And then I know my place
This is a song
For a silent sleeping girl

She wants nothing
But to wake and find you there, you there
