Goodnight (expanded edition)


My lips tenderly graze your skin
Wishing for more, or even just a kiss
However you don't seem to notice
Not a little bit, not even at all
And this makes me ponder
What I want after all

I say goodnight to you, simply
Adding an I love you, honestly
That's how it begins adding up to nothing
My dreams, they pile, bunch together
Making nightmares out of treasures
It's all because you didn't say it back to me

Surely as waves crash upon the beach
I can be so free, to just, let it be
That's how it begins adding up to something
Noticing you are still not holding me
Somberly I pray my comfort
Doesn't hinder because I say it to you
Goodnight, and, sweet dreams

May we sail our seperate ways
Goodnight, my love, my heart, my soul
Skin doesn't touch, it seizures
It's all because of the heat felt within

Say it to me, say it to me
Make me feel like I was younger
That's how it began when we were one
My dreams, my prayers, they answer
Speaking verses to my heart
I love you more today than last night

I say goodnight to you, simply
May our love live heavenward
Honestly, remember me
When your eyes shut against the world
