Some Nights In The Half Darkness

Some Nights In The Half Darkness

Some nights in the half darkness

we look at each other and smile.

We don't say a word,

but we know what we're thinking.

We drift off to dreamland into this

dreaming sleep, which goes

by all in one flash and to

awake smiling next to each

other as if night did not

come at all. I'll walk across the sleeping city, through snowy

side streets to get to you.

To have one moment with

you snuggling up to me

so you could warm

your feet on my legs and I

can have the sweet smell of

your body spray on me.

Your loving arms wrapped

around me as mine are embracing

you.

The comfort we find.

The peace that we bring.

Hoping that if when one or the other is missing that the other

would miss them.

Some nights in the half

darkness we look at each other

and smile. . .
