Cherished Love

I go to sleep, wrapped in your embrace
As I drift off, a smile enters my face
I think of your wonder, I think of your touch
I think of everything and I think it’s too much
How can one person, have all this joy?
All from one handsome, beautiful boy
I snuggle in closer, as I hear your heart beat
I know that our love, no one can meet
I lie there for hours, or so it seems
You’re my perfect guy, straight out of my dreams
I think of your magic, that’s in your kiss
Knowing if you left, it’s something I’d miss
But then you re-assure me, with your twinkling eyes
You tell me you love me, and there’ll be no goodbyes
You twiddle my hair into your hand
You tell me you love me, and that our love will stand
You bring yourself over me, and kiss my cheek
“close your eyes” you say, but I begin to peak
Out comes a gift, I squeal out and cry
I can’t keep it in, no matter how hard I try
You start to laugh, then you tickle me
I love you so, and the gift goes unseen
It’s you who’s the real gift, I believe in my heart
Together we’re perfect and we’ll make a new start
You hug me tight, and bring me real close
Matt, these are the times I cherish the most
I’ve said it before and you’ve said it too
Darling, my baby, I’m just crazy ‘bout you!
