Sighs Matter I asked if she wanted to, with the longing in my eyes And slyly she said yes, by slipping from her dress And laying by my side Moonlight through the windowpane Covered our first kiss in lace And then without a word I knew that I’d reached her From her breath upon my face Sighs matter when the room is still and dark Revealing heat ablaze in lovers’ hearts That’s when the silence leaves your soul exposed Sighs matter when you’re lying warm and close Sighs matter…sighs matter… As she stood before the mirror, brushing her long auburn hair The honey in her lips, the movement of her hips Held my hungry stare Then I silently caressed The curve of her neck And holding her was like Holding the heat of the night Like my heart held my breath Sighs matter when the room is still and dark Revealing heat ablaze in lovers’ hearts That’s when the silence leaves your soul exposed Sighs matter when we’re all alone Sighs matter at the end of the day Sighs matter when there's nothing left to say Sighs matter…sighs matter… ©2007 Robert George & Steve Soucy
