Starlight softly streaming, upon her sleeping form
Her eyes are closed in slumber but her mind still wanders on
Stolen moments seep inside her memory as she sleeps
 Times spent with her lover that made her life so sweet

The fragrance of the ocean, her head upon the sand
Lying in his arms, her heart filled with love for her man
Whispered words of love, spoken softly in her ear
His fingers touching gently upon her dampened hair

The ocean sang a sweet song, the stars lit up the sky
The breeze felt like soft velvet as the moonlight danced near by
A softness shone upon her face, her lips were soft and warm
The man that lay beside her, she wrapped gently in her arms
