The dawn creeps 'cross the pillow
Where the face of an angel
Lies cradled 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
The 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
I'm hearing 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
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
