Your gentle hands they cover me,
And I feel sleep come finally.
But I don't want to sleep tonight,
I want to stay here forever like this,
In your arms.
And how I'm longing for the sea.
To feel the waves wash over me.
And like the shining sea, light finds you.
It all becomes calm here with your head on my heart,
And in your sleep I heard you say,
You say I love you in a tender way,
All I could do was lie and gaze,
Upon that pretty sleeping face.
