While You Sleep

I don't say i love you quite enough i know
Sometimes i go for days
I'm ashamed to say
The world moves so fast
The words come so slow
And i let those excuses get in my way

(chorus)
But while you sleep
Sometimes i lie awake and watch you breathe
And in the silence that surrounds the dead of night
I bare my soul and all the words sound right
I pray the lord our hearts to keep
While you sleep

The days march through our lives like a soft parade
Laughter and the tears
Our hopes and fears
And i keep remembering things i forget to say
Perhaps some day
I'll let you know my dear

(repeat chorus)
