The Thought of You

Last night I fell asleep

And on my bare lips was a smile

I know how it got there

It was the thought of you

 

This morning as I was waking

I thought of the moment

The one we wait for

And I knew today would be better

 

And as chemistry droned on

In the middle of third period

Your face formed out the window

And I knew all the answers

 

And this afternoon as the sun was setting

I hummed a song warm and familiar, about that ocean

I know how it got started

It was the thought of you

 

As I lay my head on this cool pillow

And the only light is one that tells me time

It is quite obvious I will think of you

The only time throughout my day that is sad

 

For it is the time that I need you

The time I imagine your chest

Long for those arms

And desire a kiss from you

 

The kiss of days to come, of memories to be made

Of something so sweet, it is the thought of you
