I talk most when you sleep
She's so warm
And I'm so tired
But it's 90 and humid tonight
And she's laying on top of me
But I wouldn't move her an inch
I hold her
Feel her breathing
Whisper her name to see if she's awake
But she's not awake.
She probably fell asleep ten minutes ago
So I tell her
I tell her everything I know she'd like to hear
Everything I want to say
Everything that can really be said
I tell her then I hold her through the night
When she wakes up she doesn't know what I said
She never heard any of it.
Maybe someday soon she will
And I'm so tired
But it's 90 and humid tonight
And she's laying on top of me
But I wouldn't move her an inch
I hold her
Feel her breathing
Whisper her name to see if she's awake
But she's not awake.
She probably fell asleep ten minutes ago
So I tell her
I tell her everything I know she'd like to hear
Everything I want to say
Everything that can really be said
I tell her then I hold her through the night
When she wakes up she doesn't know what I said
She never heard any of it.
Maybe someday soon she will

This is really sweet! Aww! Love it. Although she may not know all you said, perhaps her subconscious will absorb it and strengthen her connection to you... :)
