Night Has Fallen
Night has fallen...
Time to rest our weary bones --
Through the midnight window
A full moon smiles and winks
Throws at us its goodnight kiss
Gratitude befalls our sleepy eyes
Gently to your back I press my cheek
Wrap my arms around your shoulders
As I listen to the rhythm of your heartbeat
This comforting reassurance echoes
With both our hearts in tandem
A sweet tenderness that blankets us
With an I love you on each delightful breath
