When the sleep at night missed our rendez-vous Like an orphaned child I am watching you When I lie awake and I bide my time Through the cold you warm, through the dark you shine Then I close my eyes and lose you Think of days without you near From this nightmare – cold and unsure I verify that you're still here Cover me with calm tonight To freeze these transitory times When I wake at night from a restless sleep And the mists of dreams loosen hold from me For a second then fear to be alone When I hear you breathe all my fears are gone Then I close my eyes and lose you Think how lonely it would be Can a dream just last forever? You're such a precious gift to me Cover me with calm tonight To freeze these transitory times
