Dreamin'

   As he whispers softly in my ear,
   I think of only what I hear.
   I long to feel his gentle touch,
   he said he loved me so very much.
   His strong arms held me close and tight,
   I wished no end for that wonderful night.
   We shared an experience it didn't come fast,
   I prayed to God it would always last.
   But time was passing it came near dawn,
   When I awoke in the morning, he was gone.
