I fell asleep to love
My eyes had grown heavy
(My heart was weary)
I had succumbed to the day in and day out of life
(My heart was weary)
I had succumbed to the day in and day out of life
Sleepwalking my way in the world
Yet I dreamt of love
Of the feeling of love
I tried to awake
But my slumber was deep
Then I found you
Or you found me
Sleeping
With your gentle nudge
You awakened love within me
You whispered
Wake up my sweet
Love is here (I am here)
Wake up my dear
It is time to love again
Wake up my love
We have a life to share
Wake up my love
The morning of my brother's wedding, I woke up with the idea about a poem. This was the second marriage for both of them. They knew love, but just fell asleep to it.
