Behind these lids and lashes

I can see us here together

It’s not hard to feel you with me

In every breath I take

It is you who takes these hands

When I fall restless, unbelieving

It is only you I dream of

Even as I lie awake

So quiet now,

It’s only you who I’d give my each and every day to

To stand by both in pleasure and in strife

And darling, if you’ll have me, I’ll gladly take you

And call you mine for the rest of my life

Give it up and sing it louder

We’re not going anywhere

I’ll never bother with another

Never waste time to compare them to

Your hair, your eyes, your lips, your smile

Sit with me and stay a while

I’ll let you feel the countless ways I love you

So quiet now,

It’s only you who I’d give my each and every day to

To stand by both in pleasure and in strife

And darling, if you’ll have me, I’ll gladly take you

And call you mine for the rest of my life

A charismatic picture, picture perfect, of perfection

Little more than only everything that I’ve ever wished for

And you sing to me, notes rise and fall in brief, common occurrence

Words I’ve embraced a million times

Words I’d embrace a million more

So quiet now,

It’s only you who I’d give my each and every day to

To stand by both in pleasure and in strife

And darling, if you’ll have me, I’ll gladly take you

And call you mine for the rest of my life
