Can You Not?

Please do not

Take me to anymore concerts

Because in the sea of people

Names and faces

I see only you

And your dark hair

Against the clouds

Please do not

Take me to anymore concerts

Because when the music starts

And you stand too close to me

My knees shake

Please do not

Play me anymore songs on your guitar

As you softly serenade me

Because each time you do

I pray you mean

Each sweet word you sing

Please do not

Play me anymore songs on your guitar

Because as your long fingers

Move across the frets

I have to tear my eyes away

From your face

As your lower lip pouts

In concentration

Please do not

Fall asleep near me

Because when you start to breathe

In your own slow natural rhythm

I can not help but to think

About how in sync

We are

Please do not

Fall asleep near me

Because it makes me dream about

Waking up to you
Each day
