Her Song

Sometimes when I wake at night, in the hour before the light
Darkness seems to cover and hide me all reason
Then out on the rooftop high, another day begins to climb
Something is waking in the light there I can see
A sleepy head so close to me
And every little word we sang through the night is bright for the day
Hey, you know you are love to me
You hold everything like a child for me
And I think of you and your funny ways
That sweet summer smile on your lovely face
For I love you, you are love to me
I try when we have to fight, to say the words, to put things right
It gets so hard not touching, with miles between our fingers
And then when you don’t believe, there’s so much pride to hide beneath
That something is growing in every room the touch of you
The tender edge of loving you
And everything I have is nothing if it can’t belong to you
Hey, you know you are love to me
You hold everything like a child for me
And I think of you and your funny ways
That sweet summer smile on your lovely face
For I love you, you are love to me
