Sometimes I wonder if he knows That the scent of him clings to all my clothes And I bring blankets down from my room So I fall asleep in him-scented perfume. Sometimes I wonder if he knows That as soon as my tired eyes flutter and close, I'm no longer alone in my bed But content in his arms in my basement instead. Sometimes I wonder if he knows That the warmth that I feel by his side only grows When he says he loves me with a sigh. Those three words form the lyrics to my lullabye. Sometimes I wonder if we'll know When the day will come that he can stay, and not go, But that day is a promise we'll keep -- So for now, I'll let dreams of him rock me to sleep.

A Sleepy Poem Before Bed
Sometimes I wonder if he knows That the scent of him clings to all my clothes And I bring blankets down from my room So I fall asleep in him-scented perfume. Sometimes I wonder if he knows That as soon as my tired eyes flutter and close, I'm no longer alone in my bed But content in his arms in my basement instead. Sometimes I wonder if he knows That the warmth that I feel by his side only grows When he says he loves me with a sigh. Those three words form the lyrics to my lullabye. Sometimes I wonder if we'll know When the day will come that he can stay, and not go, But that day is a promise we'll keep -- So for now, I'll let dreams of him rock me to sleep.
