For now you see her hair gently framing her face

For now you wish her shoulders soft in your embrace

For now you live for sleeping- dreaming, that is, of her

For now her eyes are liquid that make your insides stir

For now you want her laying right beside you

For now you wish night dreams to come true

For now you write what you wish was in place

But then you will say those words to her face

For then her hair will be brushing your cheek

For then you'll hold her every day of the week

For then you'll live to wake up to her smile

And those eyes that will show it was all worth your while
