This Is a Love Song

(Jim Weatherly)



Sometimes I catch myself staring at you

While you're lying fast asleep

I memorize the moment and lock it away

In my heart somewhere where it'll keep.



Sometimes I still tremble when you brush against my skin

Where your hand reaches out to touch my face

I've never known anyone like you before

And I know I'll never see the likes of you again

No one in this world could ever take your place.



And in case you don't know it this is a love song

And it comes from the heart of someone who loves you so

I don't always show it so this is a love song

You are loved I just wanted you to know.



And in the quiet times when you talk to me

I hang on to every word that you say

You might not always see my love but it's always there

You still take my breath away...
