Before it strikes 12

Beneath the silent shadows of the night

I lie awake against the cold dull light

At the thought of you warmly in my arms

Sleeping soundly and without any qualms

I would hug you until the night turns day

I'd hold you until the pain goes away

To see all the worry fade from your face

The sadness, the scorn gone without a trace

But then there is a sight I long to see

Waking up to a morning beside thee

To be the first thing you see, hear, and feel

I'd do anything for it to be real
