As I lay awake
And I close my eyes
Every detail of you
I can visualize
You're the last one I see
Before sleep befalls me
All my dreams through the night
Have you there by my side
My eyes drift to the phone
Even when I'm all alone
Fingers poised for your call
Without realizing at all
And then I feel your fingers interlace
And look up to see your smiling face
I realize that these feelings inside me are
The beginnings of love
When you take my hand
And I squeeze back tight
Hold as long as you can
Because everything's all right
When you take your time
With your goodbye hugs
When tomorrow comes
Your scent lingers on
My eyes drift to the phone
Even when I'm all alone
Fingers poised for your call
Without realizing at all
And then I feel your fingers interlace
And look up to see your smiling face
I realize that these feelings inside me are
The beginnings of love
The beginnings of love, love
