SOMETIMES IN THE MORNING WHEN SHADOWS ARE DEEP,
I LIE HERE BESIDE YOU, JUST WATCHING YOU SLEEP,
AND SOMETIMES I WHISPER WHAT I'M THINKING OF,
MY CUP RUNNETH OVER WITH LOVE,
SOMETIMES IN THE EV'NING WHEN YOU DO NOT SEE,
I STUDY THE SMALL THINGS YOU DO CONSTANTLY,
I MEMORIZE MOMENTS THAT I'M FONDEST OF,
MY CUP RUNNETH OVER WITH LOVE,
IN ONLY A MOMENT WE BOTH WILL BE OLD,
WE WON'T EVEN NOTICE THE WORLD TURNING COLD,
AND SO IN THIS MOMENT WITH SUNLIGHT ABOVE,
MY CUP RUNNETH OVER WITH LOVE.
WITH LOVE!
