While She Sleeps
If I cross my fingers and shut my eyes,
Will the smile I see on your face stay there forever?
It's so beautiful and makes me cry,
Don't want to change the angle of your mouth,
Now or ever
And yes I know it's all about her
And the way your feeling really isn't mine to keep
But if I sit close enough to you,
I might steal a little ray of light
While she sleeps
And I know your heart grows bigger each time she looks your way,
And even though you don't love me it doesn't matter,
'Cause I get to stay
Here just a bit longer,
Being close to you I can't pretend my hold on you is stronger
While she sleeps you're with me,
While she sleeps you're with me,
While she sleeps
I know there would come the time when you will move on and
You won't need me here as your good friend
But you've been with me for so long now I'm not sure how
I'm going to be alone when you're gone
And yes I know it's all about her
And the way your feeling really isn't mine to keep
But if I sit close enough to you, I might steal a little ray of light
While she sleeps
And I know your heart grows bigger each time she looks your way,
And even though you don't love me it doesn't matter,
'Cause I get to stay
Here just a bit longer,
Being close to you I can't pretend my hold on you is stronger
While she sleeps you're with me,
While she sleeps
While she sleeps you're with me,
While she sleeps
And I know your heart grows bigger each time she looks your way,
And even though you don't love me it doesn't matter,
'Cause I get to stay
Here just a bit longer,
Being close to you I can't pretend my hold on you is stronger
While she sleeps you're with me,
While she sleeps you're with me,
While she sleeps you're with me,
While she sleeps
Will the smile I see on your face stay there forever?
It's so beautiful and makes me cry,
Don't want to change the angle of your mouth,
Now or ever
And yes I know it's all about her
And the way your feeling really isn't mine to keep
But if I sit close enough to you,
I might steal a little ray of light
While she sleeps
And I know your heart grows bigger each time she looks your way,
And even though you don't love me it doesn't matter,
'Cause I get to stay
Here just a bit longer,
Being close to you I can't pretend my hold on you is stronger
While she sleeps you're with me,
While she sleeps you're with me,
While she sleeps
I know there would come the time when you will move on and
You won't need me here as your good friend
But you've been with me for so long now I'm not sure how
I'm going to be alone when you're gone
And yes I know it's all about her
And the way your feeling really isn't mine to keep
But if I sit close enough to you, I might steal a little ray of light
While she sleeps
And I know your heart grows bigger each time she looks your way,
And even though you don't love me it doesn't matter,
'Cause I get to stay
Here just a bit longer,
Being close to you I can't pretend my hold on you is stronger
While she sleeps you're with me,
While she sleeps
While she sleeps you're with me,
While she sleeps
And I know your heart grows bigger each time she looks your way,
And even though you don't love me it doesn't matter,
'Cause I get to stay
Here just a bit longer,
Being close to you I can't pretend my hold on you is stronger
While she sleeps you're with me,
While she sleeps you're with me,
While she sleeps you're with me,
While she sleeps
