gently rocking lullaby for a weary soul

Rest

Lay me down softly
So I can get some rest
Let me feel a calmness
Beside someone I love best

Though the touching leads
To nowhere but to know
How we hold each other
In our hearts we won't let go

This rest in my mind is all I need
Refreshing a spirit living in me
A perfect peace with someone I see
The rest of my life will always be
The best with you

Can this be better
Than really making love
When I feel your body
If we only share a hug

We can talk til dawn
And let our feelings out
I know the rest will come
Quiet love that isn't loud

This rest in my mind is all I need
Refreshing a spirit living in me
A perfect peace with someone I see
The rest of my life will always be
The best with you

Your response is worth the wait
It will come and not too late
We both can say, "You sure were great"
Let's rest a while for another day

This rest in my mind is all I need
Refreshing a spirit living in me
A perfect peace with someone I see
The rest of my life will always be
The best with you
