Morning comes and she's sleeping beside me
I'm not ashamed that she's lying there
Her lips are still warm from the love she just gave me
She's content with sweet dreams we shared

Soon I know that she will awaken
With the smile that strips my soul bare
While I wait for her smile and the sunshine that follows
I offer to heaven this prayer

Please Lord let me love her forever
And keep her just the way she is now
She's tender and warm
She's mine for the asking
My sweetheart, my treasure, my prayer

Please Lord let me love her forever
And keep her just the way she is now
She's tender and warm
Mine for the asking
My sweetheart, my treasure, my prayer
