I don't know who you are, or if you have yet started to love me,
but let me tell you darling, one day you'll wake up to me.
You will open your eyes and see I was the one to open them,
the one to open your bedroom curtains to the rising sun.
Sheets lay about you as a platter of food is set before you,
eggs the way you like them, with bacon, orange juice, and a rose too.
Light sifting in the air, the air scintillating about your hair,
every drop of beauty the world contains is collected into you.
I lean forward to kiss you I can't help but wonder if you see what I do,
each and every day that I wake up to the beauty that will be you.
For I've sent up a million and one prayers to Heaven for thee,
and one day these prayers will be answered when you wake up to me.
I 'd go beyond the world if you wished that little thing from me,
just to find you at whatever place held your hearts key.
So keep close as we fall asleep to the glowing moons light,
and stay with me all through the sleepless nights.
Just as predawn starts to come around and we fall asleep,
my arms around you to remind me your there I will keep.
This letter contains my hearts key, honest and truly,
and it will be yours, on the day you find yourself waking up to me.
