I spoke your name softly into the night-

And let its sweetness surround me,

When it rolled off my lips it sounded as if -

I was whispering a prayer – maybe I was.

I find a silent strength within myself-

Given to me with the love you show,

And when I am alone I feel you the most-

I can’t explain this love – nor do I try.

With every, “I love you”, that I whisper-

I hear it when you say, “I love you too”,

And I feel the words deep inside my heart-

The heart that you hold – I feel it now.

Lay your love softly on me tonight-

Let me feel the touch that I am missing,

And let me speak the words of my heart-

Let me speak of love – let me speak of you.

The flame of love burns brightly-

For two hearts that are so much in love,

And I long to taste your sweetness again-

As it forms on your lips – I taste you now.

I spoke your name softly into the night-

And let its sweetness surround me,

When it rolled off my lips it sounded as if -

I was whispering a prayer – maybe I was.
