When We Sleep

I never considered myself to be lonely 
'til you came along my way, saw what I had been missing 
Now that I know you, I can only feel sorry 
for all the years wasted without you here by me 
You dance in the daytime to all your favorite songs 
At the foot of our bed, tell me stories so long 
Going out in the evening, counting stars in the sky 
Your eyes in the moonlight make me feel so sublime 
And when we sleep it's not alone 
We're not alone any longer dear 
And when I wake with you beside me I feel whole 
I feel home 
When clouds blanket the heavens, can't see in front of our faces 
Making love in the dark, our souls, our oasis 
In the late summer grass, lie close in the pitch black 
Rest your head on my shoulder with my hand on your back 
And when we sleep it's not alone 
We're not alone any longer dear 
And when I wake with you beside me I feel whole 
I feel home 
I drink up our moments, keep them locked in my mind 
When the days hit me hardest and I'm falling behind 
When the world seems its worst, and I'm feeling confined 
And reasons to have faith become so hard to find 
You bring me back to earth 
Hold my hand to remind 
Love makes life worth living 
With our fingers entwined 
And when we sleep it's not alone 
We're not alone any longer dear 
And when I wake with you beside me I feel whole 
I feel home
