Minutes before midnight
I could see the full moon’s light
Shining through the window
Glimmering in the night
And there, the fairest silhouette
This shadow next to me
The one who taught my soul to love
And taught these eyes to see
The beauty hidden in her soul
The smile that lights my way
The way she looks inside my heart
And brightens every day
That’s why I pledged a vow to her
One I will always keep
But minutes before midnight
I’ll just hold her while she sleeps
