Through the fog when I close my eyes
In the instant before sleep comes
I can feel your soul
Lying next to me
I feel you breathe
What it is to know you are real
Not a figment of my mind
Or part of the charred nightmares
That plague my nights
Even back then
Before we touched
When I slept you held me
Scared off the demons
In the instant before sleep comes
I can feel your soul
Anchoring me to this world
Waking confusion abates
The moment you touch my hand
A grounding that only you could bring
Truer faith I have not known
Than the trust I have in you
Because in the instant before sleep comes
I find solace in your love
