Lyrics
Just before the sun came up
I watched you sleeping fitfully
One foot shaking, shaking?
I wanted just to hold you
One black shiny lock of hair
Against a sky-blue pillowcase
One black shiny sleeping dog
Curling up against you
Just before the sun came up
I heard you laughing softly
Almond eyes ? a baby?s smile
I took in everything
I sat beside you for awhile
You told be of your dream
I gazed in wonder at the child
Before me
And you will not leave me
You cannot go
There?s much to be discussed
Deep in the Heart of Us.
It?s okay to laugh
It?s okay to cry
It?s okay to trust
In the heart of us
Finally we?re safe
Finally we?re home
Finally we?re just
In the heart of us
And you will not leave me
You cannot go
There?s much to be discussed
Deep in the Heart of Us.
Don?t leave me
Please don?t go
There?s much to be discussed
Deep in the heart of us.
Deep in the heart of us.
Just before the sun came up
I watched you sleeping.
