A DREAM AND A WISH

She lies next to me
And I feel her as she breathes
And I still strive to see the flutterings of her eyes
We warm this double bed
And she has filled my head
Now I would take nothing instead of the safety of these sighs

Comfort, warmth, and love flow over
On my face turned toward her

I wake from sleep alone
But she still warms my cold
From the dream these blankets hold, the thought of a distant day
When I'll take her in my arms
And we will share the warmth
That we've missed while apart and I'll look at her and say

Comfort, warmth, and love flow over
On my face turned toward you

You promised you would never leave
And here I am alone
Did you think that I would work it out
And make it on my own
Just tell me that you die inside
When i'm cold, when I cry
I long for home, I long for home,
I long for home

I push the dream aside
When he comes I run and hide
And he will always find me lost, alone, and cold
He gently turns my face
And he covers me with grace
And I hear in that embrace, "Let me take you home"

Comfort, warmth, and love flow over
On my face turned to you
And I can fathom endless depths
Of grace when i turn towards you

Let comfort, warmth, and love flow over
On my face turned toward you
Let me fathom endless depths
Of grace when I turn to you
