Lyrics

0:14All night you'd lay asleep
0:18Enfolded in my arms
0:22Breathing slow and sweet
0:27I never understood
0:32How it would prove to be
0:36Such a luxury to feel
0:41Your hand warm in my hand
0:48Your kiss on my cheek
0:56Lovers and friends
0:59Are all that matter
1:03You'll never know how much it
1:07Came to mean to me
1:10To have you by my side
1:16In battles lost and won
1:28And now I understand
1:32These things can never be
1:37Guaranteed
1:42I wish I could recall
1:46Each mundane tenderness
1:51Remember every look each word
1:58Preserve every breath
2:03Each kiss each caress
2:11Lovers and friends
2:14Are all that matter
2:18I never thought that I would
2:22Watch you drowning
2:25Far from any sea on crumpled sheets
2:31White sand in your eyes
3:25Lovers and friends
3:28Are all that matter
3:32And now when all I have of you
3:38Is a memory
3:40I raise my hand to touch my cheek
3:45Imprinted with your love
All night you'd lay asleep
Enfolded in my arms
Breathing slow and sweet
I never understood
How it would prove to be
Such a luxury to feel
Your hand  warm in my hand
Your kiss on my cheek
Lovers and friends
Are all that matter
You'll never know how much it
Came to mean to me
To have you by my side
In battles lost and won
And now I understand
These things can never be
Guaranteed
I wish I could recall
Each mundane tenderness
Remember every look  each word
Preserve every breath
Each kiss  each caress
Lovers and friends
Are all that matter
I never thought that I would
Watch you drowning
Far from any sea  on crumpled sheets
White sand in your eyes
Lovers and friends
Are all that matter
And now when all I have of you
Is a memory
I raise my hand to touch my cheek
Imprinted with your love
