Hush

Hush, gentle wind

Which stirs my heart

Carress my lips gently

So ours never part

Speak soft the words

Of love found in secret

Yet, shine of the light

Be my souls beacon

Hold me so sacred

As I hold you tight

Dream of me lightly

As day dreams of night

Remember I love you

As I know you do

And whenever I'm breathing

I'm thinking of you

Now lay down your head

And enter sweet sleep

Know that when the sun rises

I'm still yours to keep
