As you lie sleeping
rest so peacefully your face
The picture of contented beauty
your body gently stirring with each breath
I lie beside you drifting closer to sleep
As I hold you ...The angel beside me
I wonder if you know how happy
you've made me
shown me the person I could be
held me through the roughest times
dried my tears as I cried
brought a smile through the pain
As I hold you...The angel beside me
You make me feel so complete
never known a love so deep
so before I drift and dream
I whisper these words in your ear
I love you as I hold you
The Angel Beside Me
