Let me lie my head upon your chest
Allow me to take a little rest
Wrap your arms around me tight
I'm weak and weary from the fight
In your arms
Finding the charms
Voices are calm
No sounding alarms
For just a moment, the world slips away
I found Heaven on this day
The soothing sound of your heart beat
Warmth and security, it's such a treat
Worries all gone
No clanging gong
With nothing wrong
Only the heartbeats song
In brief seconds, you let me believe
There's more to this world than what I see
The moment slides by way to fast
Your light is fading, shadows are cast
Time to go
I sink below
Seeds you sow
Demons still show
Can't wait till your in my presence tomorrow
You chase away all demons and sorrow
The rest of my life I will remember your smile
Wonder if you'll know, you was my hero all the while
