While I Watch You Sleep

© 2010 Mark Cote

As I sit here
and watch you sleep
I think of everything you mean to me
the morning rays
flow through your hair
while you dream of me I say a prayer
while I watch you sleep

Those gentle lips
I don't forsake
if I kissed your heart would you awake
You breathed life
right into me
I return the favor carefully
while I watch you sleep

(chorus) Your the sun to my rain
                the rain to my sun
                but I don't know what I'd do
                if you were gone
                Those beautiful eyes
                that can see to my soul
                saw a world that nobody could have known
                while I watch you sleep

then quietly
you looked at me
I thank the heavens you came back to me
The spark in your eyes
of a little girl
the love for me because you fill my world
while I watch you sleep

(chorus)
