The sheets are tangled, the air is cool
Sunlight streams, paints the room a fool
My eyelids heavy, a drowsy plea
Let me slumber, just hold me near, please

Let me sleep, but wake me up before you go
A whisper soft, a gentle touch, I need to know
That you're leaving, even for a little while
A goodbye kiss, a sleepy smile

The world can wait, the day's a blur
Lost in dreams, of me and you, for sure
But hold this moment, before you disappear
This quiet haven, where worries have no fear

The warmth beside me, a fleeting spark
This precious sleep, leaves its loving mark
A silent promise, whispered in the breeze
That you'll return, and set my heart at ease

Just a goodbye, a moment shared
Then back to dreams, with love repaired
Let me sleep, but wake me up before you go
The rest will come, as long as you let me know
