i turned off the sky
when i saw you were sleeping
i wrapped you in sunshine
when i saw you were weeping
and when you quivered
and you shivered
and you wept without the day
i lit a match
and blew it out
and set the sun to blaze
i waited for the darkest sky
and kept the day from taking night
as hours passed in peace we lie
beneath the clear blue northern lights
when you awoke to dawnings ray
you turned and asked for me to stay
and without a single silent sound
i moved the earth half way around
your neck would lay your head to rest
to hear the beat within my breast
and every night
i was the light
to bring your heart conte
