"Night"

I lye my head upon my pillow
and drift off into the night.
Memories dancing through my head
dreams of years gone by.

Night is what I look forward to.
When life seems to come alive again.
My moments to dream of you
of times we shared back then.

Night to quinch this lonely heart.
To feel your warm embrace.
Deep deep deep within
I touch your smiling face.

I dread to see the morning light.
My eyes squint at break of day.
This sun, it doesn't shine for me
My sunshine is seen at night.
