Lying in bed
I sit outside this morning of our soon to be happy place
You’re on the way, coming home there’s a smile on my face
The birds are harmonizing, together we are singing a happy tune
Our dogs smiling too, laying by the gate hoping to see you soon
It’s late July, it’s starting to get hot as hell
When we get together we will melt and jell
One voice and one love that we share in our song
About how happy we are since the other came along
I have dreamt a lifetime about a world filled with magical powers
Where every day began happy and hopeful now baby that’s ours
And both the struggles and good times that we know lie ahead
We will tackle together and ruminate as we kiss goodnight lying in bed
And when it’s getting to be the cold of winter and we feel chilled
We will snuggle up and get warm and relish the things we fulfilled
Devise a plan for the new year and a slate of goals for us to reach
And every day we discover more of each other, we learn and we teach
We take what we have and use it to build ourselves a castle made of love
Knowing full well that’s it’s not always easy and sometimes you need a shove
Still even more important is knowing when it’s time to reach out and pull
As long as we’re together the glass is never half empty babe it’s always half full
I have dreamt a lifetime about a world filled with magical powers
Where every day began happy and hopeful, now baby that’s ours
And both the struggles and the good times we both know lie ahead
We will tackle together and ruminate as we kiss goodnight lying in bed
Lord don’t we look forward to and love
Lying in bed
