Lyrics
You Who Sleep Beside Me
© 2000 Rod MacDonald (Blue Flute Music/ASCAP)
You who sleep beside me here in this quiet night
Do you remember how it was you first came in sight?
the bells of the cathedral were dying in the wind
you looked at me and smiled across your crowd of friends
and I felt a recognition not of someone from the past
but of a true beauty that was meant to last
and I wanted to speak to you or even say your name and get it right
you who sleep beside me here in this quiet night.
You who sleep beside me here in this quiet life
Do you ever wonder how you became my wife?
the room was lit by just a candle over by the bed
you walked across the room, smiled and turned your head
and I felt a recognition not from another time
but of the meaning of the words will you be mine
and I wanted to hold you safe from every sorrow or strife
you who sleep beside me here in this quiet life.
You who sleep beside me here in this quiet place
Do you ever wonder about the futures we face?
at the sound of thunder I look for shelter for two
and walk through the world knowing I will come to rest with you
and I feel a recognition not of habit or right or wrong
but a feeling of arriving at the place where I belong
and I whisper I love you and leave you in your own state of grace
you who sleep beside me here in this quiet place
you who sleep beside me here in this quiet night.
