I'd Sleep Tonight
by Buck Cash
If I could but hold you for a moment's time,
And kiss your lips so soft and fine,
And gaze with love into your eyes,
Then yes, I'd sleep tonight.
If I could but hear your angel's voice,
Whisper to me, "You are my choice",
And feel my heart leap with delight,
Then yes, I'd sleep tonight.
If I could but show you all that I am,
And if I could please you like no-one else can,
And if you could love me and know that it's right,
Then yes, I'd sleep tonight.
If I could just touch my fingers to yours,
Just the tips, very lightly... my four to your four,
Then star-lit night skies could abolish this light,
Then yes, I'd sleep tonight.
If I could but stop these feelings for you;
Forget you forever without feeling blue...
(But I can't and it's no use trying to fight it)
Then yes, I'd sleep tonight.
If I could be wealthy beyond all compare;
Have beautiful lovers all sultry and bare,
Or ONLY have you and a place we could sleep,
Then yes, I'd sleep tonight.
