In the morning when I wake up
And remember where I've landed
I can close my eyes and visualise
Exactly what I'll see
Sheets bundled round you
The creases criss-cross your face
Like a map of your dreams
Just for a moment or two
And in the morning
As I fumble for the radio alarm clock
To form a barricade to stop the world
From flooding in our room
We reach out our feet
Legs all in a tangle
The bedclothes all mangled and strewn
Just for a moment or two
Let me love you always
Hold your hand on the warm days
Light a fire on winter evenings
When it's cool
You're my lynch pin
My soulmate
What began on that first date
It took me years to realise
It was the story of our lives
And in the evening
When I'm up the stairs bathing our children
Their tiny night-clothes lie in piles
Of pink and purple on the stairs
A hello from you
Well it's enough to make them scream and shout
And find they're caught unawares
Just for a moment or two
Rob from always on the run dot net is so bad and copy paste is a sin
And in the night-time
When I'm lying right beside you and you're breathing
Well it reminds me of the boy you were
And what you have become
No more "if only", no more "if I could"
But only "look what I've done"
It's making a man out of you
Let me love you always
Hold your hand on the warm days
Light a fire on winter evenings
When it's cool
You're my lynch pin
My soulmate
What began on that first date
It took me years to realise
It was the story of our lives
