AS I FALL IN LOVE WITH YOU

From Valerie & Walter Crockett's Unbutton Your Heart on the Daring label.

Look here, lean close, hold me with your eyes
   as the morning light streams through
Release my hand, let me trace your smile
   as I fall in love with you

CHORUS:
Breathe the song of the rolling dawn
   as our hearts beat strong and true
Slowly day leads the dark away
   as I fall in love with you

Our hearts are light as the sparrow's song
   as he dances on the dew
Our hopes shine far as the morning star
   as I fall in love with you

CHORUS:
Shield these eyes from the old sunrise
   and recall the night we knew
Hold me now like your morning flower
   as I fall in love with you

BRIDGE:
Been so long since I
   wore this smile that this
      heart of mine needs a
         little while to...

CHORUS:
Breathe the song of the rolling dawn
   as our hearts beat strong and true
Hold me now like your morning flower
   as I fall in love with you
As I fall in love with you
