Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I don't want to sleep yet, not quite
Notice your eyes gleam from the moonlight
The curve of your lips sing when they say Goodnight
One year has dawned since our first kiss
Ans still you make me tremble and nervous, just like before
I fall in love with you every morning, even more
Watching you sleep so calm, your eyes shut tight
Cuddle you like a baby should, no fright
Passing my fingers through your hair, red bright
I′m lucky you found me when you did, I'm yours
One year has dawned since our first kiss
Ans still you make me tremble and nervous, just like before
I never thought this could exist
I fall in love with you every morning, even more
