Rhythm of Your Breathing

What's that you say?
Hmmm????
Could you repeat that one more time please?
You see, I couldn't quite hear what you said
What you are doing is speaking so much louder than words
And I got lost there, for just a minute, or so I thought
Lost in your touch, your kiss, your embrace
And yes, of course, lost in your eyes
Lost in everything that you are
And overcome by everything that you are to me...
Wrapped in arms so soft yet so strong
Home...this feels like home to me
There's no other word, no other way to describe this feeling
This feeling I get when you hold me this way
And it turns out that I fell fast asleep
That I fell asleep to the rhythm of your breathing
Your soft little lullaby sent me off to sleep
But in sleep, it seems that I dream of you always
And so I dream with you beside me, feeling safe and warm
Yes, when I wake, you're always there
And baby...there's nothing, nothing, nothing better
Then to know that you're by my side, awake or otherwise...
