LIGHT OF MY DAYS, SWEET ANGEL OF MY DREAMS

I used to look at you in the light of a friend,
until that time the light changed.
Now, when I gaze upon you,
I see so much more inside of you,
and I can't help but wonder how this eluded me until now.
You are all that I ever could have wanted and hoped for --
You -- the light of my day, sweet angel of my dreams.

I see your beautiful face everywhere I go,
I see you in my best dreams,
I see you in the starlit sky up above,
I see you in the faces of complete strangers,
I see you every minute of every day inside my heart.
Light of my day, sweet angel of my dreams.

I long to hold you in my arms
and gaze endlessly into your eyes,
just knowing that we are together
and all is perfect and right in the world.
Light of my day, sweet angel of my dreams.

Your eyes are those of eternal beauty,
so many shades of tenderness I see in them.
One look and I lose myself in them
and, for a moment, the world seems to stand still.
Light of my day, sweet angel of my dreams.

When I am with you,
it seems to me like heaven -
there is no other place in the entire world
I would rather be than by your side.
Light of my day, sweet angel of my dreams.

Things seem to be so right
when I am around you, even if only for a moment...
sadness, stress, and anxiety all vanish.
They are but shadows dancing
around the light and warmth of your heart.
Light of my day, sweet angel of my dreams.

Your smile is like a sunrise,
with gentle yet familiar rays of warmth
touching my heart like a thousand
sunbeams piercing through a stormy sky.
Light of my day, sweet angel of my dreams.

Maybe I will never know what could have been,
whether we could have found the sweetness
of love inside each other's hearts,
or if the idea would have died unsaid on my lips...
Light of my day, sweet angel of my dreams.
