I was in the dark I was praying for sunlight Pressed my hands together as I kneel in the midnight She could be a flower such a fragile being She could be an angel so peacefully sleeping My love grows Every day more and more As we fall Deeper and deeper in love Staring at the work of a hand I know little about Casting all our cares to the sea as we say goodnight Laying here beside you I'm at home by your bedside I kiss your mother's cheek there is no place I'd rather lie
