I'm Stripping You Of Your Dreams

When your eyes are closed on the bed,
That is when I'm quietly filled with laughter,
I feel lightheaded and my chest hurts.
Look at you with your clothes on.
Bet you never thought I would be the one awake.
You didn't think I'd be the one watching you sleep.
Don't stir little baby,
I will sing you a lullaby if you wake.
Listen to you as you snore.
I whisper in your ear,
"What is in your dreams?"
Through your snoring I can hear your confessions,
You dream of the naked.
"Repeat the last part please."
Blonde hair and blue eyes,
Is that me you are describing?
The bells in my lungs ring out again.
It seems I have woken you up,
But soon you will be in my arms again,
Fast, fast asleep dreaming.
How easy it is to comfort you,
Whether you are in reality or fantasy.
