While You Gently Sleep While you gently sleep my love
I'll run my fingers through your hair
While you aren't feeling well
I hope you feel me there
I am right there at your side
Showering you with kisses
Although I'm not there in the flesh
My spirits always there
I feel you breathing on my neck
As we lay side by side
I feel your heart beating
As your chest rests next to mine
While you sleep I kiss your head
I see you start to smile
I wonder, are you dreaming of me?
Or for a second did you wake when I kissed you?
You open your eyes and look at me
I smile as I say I love you
You snuggle close and close your eyes
As you sleepily say I love you too
I hold you close to me and kiss your head again
I lay back on our bed and watch you sleep
Beside you I fall asleep
To the beating of your heart
I wake up with a nervous jump
You are stirring in your sleep
I whisper its ok baby
You can go back sleep
You open up your eyes
With a yawn you smile
I kiss you on the lips
As we lay back and snuggle
