Song For A Stormy

The rain beats hard at my windowWhile you, so softly do sleepAnd you can't hear the cold wind blowYou are sleeping so deepOutside it's dark, the moon hidingBy starlight only I seeThe host of the night-time go ridingBut you are safe here with meSo, while the world out there is sleepingAnd everyone wrapped up so tightOh, I am here a vigil keepingOn this stormy nightI promised I always would love youIf skies would be gray or be blueI whisper this prayer now above youThat there will always be youSometimes, we're just like the weatherChanging by day after dayAs long as we'll be togetherStorms will pass awayI said, I would guard and protect youAnd keep you free from all harmAnd if life should ever reject youThat love would weather each stormSo, while the world out there is sleepingAnd everyone wrapped up so tightOh, I am here a vigil keepingOn this stormy nightI promised I always would love youIf skies would be gray or be blueI whisper the prayer now above youThat there will always be youSoon, I know you'll be waking,Ask did I sleep- did I write?And I'll just say I was makingA song... for a stormy night.
