I tiptoe silently into the room
While you lie asleep
Afraid to wake you up
Anxious not to disturb the melody of your dream

For I know when you are dreaming about me
For your dreams whisper to me
Softly, sweetly, divulging your secrets, one at a time
Like dew drops falling from a love laden leaf

And when my heart is fully drenched
With your dreamy nectar
I glance sideways and see your face
Trying to catch a hint of a smile

For I know that you know as well
Of my secret door to your heart strings
Which gently strum my name
With the rhythm of your dreams
