While You Are Sleeping - Thomas Borchert

Don’t want to sleep,

Don’t want to miss

One second of you beside me.

I hold you close,

And hear your heart.

You’re all I want to see.

And I’ll be kissing you and all of your dreams tonight.

Gently touching you while you’re sleeping.

Kissing you until you’ll wake up and then,

We’ll be kissing 'til the sun’s going down.

I hear you breathe,

And touch your hair.

Your skin is soft like warm water.

In you I see the sun and moon.

My universe in your slow moves.

And I’ll be kissing you and all of your dreams tonight.

Gently touching you while you’re sleeping.

Kissing you until you’ll wake up and then,

We’ll be kissing 'til the sun’s going down.

And I’ll be missing you when you’re not around.
