In the morning when I wake up and remember where I've landed
I can close my eyes and visualize exactly what I'll see
Sheets bundled 'round you
The creases criss-cross your face like a map of your dreams
Just for a moment or two
And in the morning as I fumble for the radio alarm clock
To form a barricade to stop the world from flooding in our room
We reach out our feet
Legs all in a tangle, the bedclothes all mangled and strewn
Just for a moment or two
Let me love you always
Hold your hand on the warm days
Light a fire on winter evenings when it's cool
You're my lynch pin, my soulmate
What began on that first date
It took me years to realize
It was the story of our lives
And in the evening when I'm up the stairs bathing our children
Their tiny nightclothes lie in piles of pink and purple on the stairs
A hello from you
Well, it's enough to make them scream and shout and find they're caught unawares
Just for a moment or two
And in the nighttime when I'm lying right beside you and you're breathing
Well, it reminds me of the boy you were and what you have become
No more "if only"
No more "if I could" but only "look what I've done"
It's making a man out of you
Let me love you always
Hold your hand on the warm days
Light a fire on winter evenings when it's cool
You're my lynch pin, my soulmate
What began on that first date
It took me years to realize
It was the story of our lives
