Awake

I'm lying awake, dreaming with open eyes,
And hoping you're dreaming of me.

Your smile, your hair, your voice, your eyes...
They keep me up though I know I'll see them again
When I close my eyes.

I feel a longing, an ache that gives me no rest;
And only for the simple pleasure of
Touching your hand or
Staring at you as long as I please.

So sleep tight, my dear,
And know I long to be your Knight.
I hold the Code close to my heart and
Wait for the day when you will
See me in shining armor.
