Soft Whispers

I trace the shadows dancing on your skin
The midnight embers where we begin
Your breathing slows like a southern breeze
I'm falling softly, falling to my knees
The coffee's cold on the window sill
The town outside is quietly still
I pull you closer against my chest
Where every heartbeat comes to rest
There's a gentle magic in the way you sigh
Looking up at me with a sleepy eye
I feel the static every time we touch
A single spark is almost too much
So let the moon fade into the dawn
We've got the warmth to carry us on
Your soft whispers pull me so deep
You're the only dream I want to keep
Oh, whisper to me, hold me tight
Whisper to me, all through the night
Your fingers tangle softly in my hair
We're miles away from the morning glare
A little laughter escapes your lips
My fingertips resting on your hips
The fire is low but the feeling is right
We're wrapped up completely in the quiet night
I catch my breath when you look my way
There's a thousand things I don't need to say
So let the moon fade into the dawn
We've got the warmth to carry us on
Your soft whispers pull me so deep
You're the only dream I want to keep
Oh, whisper to me, hold me tight
Whisper to me, all through the night
I've wandered down some empty, lonely roads
Searching for a story yet untold
I used to be a drifter in the wind
But this is where my wandering finally ends
Just a touch from you breaks my defense
Sayed is yours, in every single sense
I never knew the dark could feel so bright
Until I held you in the quiet of the night
So let the moon fade into the dawn
We've got the warmth to carry us on
Your soft whispers pull me so deep
You're the only dream I'll ever keep
