Analysis of Sleeping with Angels
Sleeping with angels, your face in my dreams,
Love weaving its magic, filling my soul with moonbeams.
Just a million more kisses, craving the sweet taste of your lips,
Stars so close, but just out of reach of my fingertips.
Feeling your arms surround me, bringing joy to my heart,
The time is near, a time when we will no longer be apart.
Till then I'll be . . .
Sleeping with the angels, and seeing your face in my dreams.
