To make my life beautiful

The dawn creeps 'cross
The pillow where the face
Of an angel lies cradles
In a nest of tangled hair
And the smile of contentment
on your face while you've been sleepin'
keeps me going
makes me know just why I'm here

And I don't believe you'll ever find
a thought will ever cross my mind to leave

I'd die from loneliness
I need your onlyness
a place for my soul to rest
yes, I need your love
to make my life beautiful

The alarmclock rings at seven
and I feel a stir beside me
and I hear your gentle footsteps on the floor

I raise up from my pillow
just in time to catch a small glimpse
of a housecoat swishing through the kitchen door

And I don't believe you'll ever find
a thought will ever cross my mind to leave

I'd die from loneliness
I need your onlyness
a place for my soul to rest
Yes, I need your love
To make my life beautiful
I watch my shaving razor gliding smoothly
on the face of a happy man
who loves to live at home

And the sweetest voice I ever heard
is calling me to breakfast
and I don't know how I made it on my own

And I don't believe you'll ever find
a thought will ever cross my mind to leave

I'd die from loneliness
I need your onlyness
a place for my soul to rest
yes, I need your love
to make my life beautiful
