Her Song

Sometimes when I wake at night
In the hour before the light
Darkness seems to cover
And hide me from all reason
Then out on the rooftop high
Another day begins to climb
Something is waking in the light
There I can see
A sleepy head so close to me
And every little word we sang through the night
Is bright for the day

Hey, you know you are love to me
You hold everything like a child for me
And I think of you and your funny ways
That sweet summer smile on your lovely face
For I love you
You are love to me

I try when we have to fight
To say the words
To put things right
It gets so hard not touching
With miles between our fingers
And then when you don't believe
There's so much pride to hide beneath
That something is growing
In every room the touch of you
The tender edge of loving you
And everything I have is nothing
If it can't belong to you

Hey, you know you are love to me
You hold everything like a child for me
And I think of you and your funny ways
That sweet summer smile on your lovely face
For I love you
You are love to me
