Prayers

As I finish my prayers and get into my bed,

I wish for sweet dreams to enter my head.

These sweet dreams I wish for are sweet dreams of you,

I wish with all might that these dreams will come true.

In my dreams you are standing, just waiting for me,

Despite my love of you now, with you I can't be.

But in all my dreams, all I desire is there,

Including your love, so tender and fair.

My dreams seem so real, can I tell them apart?

Of course, if I listen to my own dear heart.

This isn't a dream, it's so true and so real,

I only wish your warm touch is something that I could feel.

A love just like this is a feeling I love,

As gentle and peaceful as a white turtle dove.

I hope I'm in yours, but you're here in my heart,

My love is a thing that will never depart.
