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

While she sleeps you're with me

While she sleeps you're with me

While she sleeps you're with me

While she sleeps
