While You Sleep
by Rhonda Maneki
And while you sleep,
I will watch over you..
I will love you,
comfort you,
from any bad dreams.
I will
Be there,
to soothe you, to
ease you
though the night.
And while you sleep,
I will sing to you,
a song that only your
heart can hear...
While you sleep,
I will comfort You...
I will touch You,
so tenderly..
While you sleep.
Oh, no...
You won't see me weeping..
No you won't ever know,
You won't see me at all.
Only your soul will know,
How much I love You.
How much,
I do..
oh, I do..
While your sleeping,
you won't know.
Just how beautiful,
I truly know you are.
While you sleep.
