You wake up with stardust in your eyes
Like a child, your first glance
All innocence, you gaze upon my face
Eyes as if in a trance.

You wake up slowly, always
Loath to let go of your slumber
And often I watch you as you sleep
My heart surrendered asunder

You wake up to me with a smile
You stroke my face with love
You hold my hand in yours
And I give thanks to whatever is above
That you've come into my life
With your tenderness and pain
For no matter how hard it can be
I would not have you go again.

You wake up with stardust in your eyes
Sometimes green, sometimes blue...
And if ever asked what I truly desire,
I would have to say.... only you.
