I have watched you as you slept
In the newest part of day
I have knelt beside your bed
Gently kissed you as you lay

I have watched you as you slept
And kept the dark at bay
And as you cried out in your sleep
I've brushed the tears away

I've watched you as you dream
As the night became the dawn
As the dew was kissing the rose
I have touched your face and gone

I have loved you for a time
I have wished you were my own
I have watched you as you slept
And you have never known..........

"The woods are lovely, dark, and deep, But I have promises to keep, And miles to go before I sleep, And miles to go before I sleep."
