Heartbeat in My Ear

Heartbeat in My Ear

by Marshal Gebbie

The rain is on the windowpane 
It's cold and still outside 
And we're together cuddled up, 
Entwined in bed ...sublime! 

Sunday morning, nothings on 
The day is ours to spend 
But entwined, we want this magic moment 
...Now, to never end. 

Curled together in a warm embrace 
Our bodies... Oh so near, 
I can feel your breath upon my brow 
Hear your heartbeat in my ear. 

Our toes are pressed together 
Your fingers curling in my hair 
I just love your gentle snoring 
And your heartbeat in my ear. 

Through all the years we've shared 
The good, the bad, the far the near 
These loving moments are the best 
When there's your heartbeat in my ear. 

The understanding that develops 
Over time, year after year 
And the love that grows within it, 
Heartbeat in my ear.
