I Don't Want to Wake You Lyrics

While you're lying asleep
You're painting a picture
That I'll always keep in my mind
Stay with that dream
Good ones are hard to findThe warmth of your hand
Your breath on my skin
And the rise and the fall of your breast
Takes me away
Puts all my troubles to restThere are so many things I should tell you
But a man doesn't know how
There's an ache and it's breakin' me open
But I don't want wake you right nowI open my eyes
You're lying beside me
Keeping me warm in the night
I've never thought loving could be so rightIf I had my way I'd gather my wishes
And whisper them all in your ear
I never knew heaven could be so nearThere are so many things I should tell you
But a man doesn't know how

There's an ache and it's breakin' me open
But I don't want to wake you right nowWhile you're lying asleep
You're painting a picture
I'll always keep in my mindI'll always keep in my mind
