Pillow Talk

As the midnight glaze falls over your eyes
I lie awake and realize
All the things I want to say to you
But do not have the courage to

Asleep you can't deny what's true
I know because I followed you
Through luncheons and lobby halls
And listened through some paper thin walls

So I hope you wake before you die
To hear this one last lullaby
You see I hope you wake before you die
To hear this one last lullaby

Lying there
Innocent girl alive
Complacent lips
But thin lids cover her eyes

Oh but what to tell me
"We're playing it right, he can't see"
"We'll see what the new year brings
I've rented a cottage for the spring"

You take my heart you take my name
He puts your picture in his frame
You've had some fun I'll take the blame
What started with a struggle can end the same

I hope you wake before you die
To hear this one last lullaby
You see I hope you wake before you die
To hear this one last lullaby

Lying there
Innocent girl alive
Complacent lips
But thin lids cover her eyes

Dawn descends on the two lovers
I pull the spread and straighten the covers
Just time for a kiss then on their way
If pillows talked what would they say?
