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 form the east
My heart beat dowm in my chest
To the rhythm of your gentle breath

And the whole world calmed down
For this moment of rest


Now 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 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
