The Sanctity Of Us

© 2017 Jeffrey E. McCaskill. All Rights Reserved.
There’s nothin’ in this moment 
That’s more sacred than your smile
Nothin’ more holy
Than just holdin’ you a while.

Let’s take a day and stay in bed
With all the curtains drawn
Don’t ask me why I need to
There’s just too much goin’ on.

BRIDGE
Oh, babe, I need to retreat 
Inside of you
Inside of you.

Oh, babe, I need to restore
My heart in you
My heart in you.

Too many days go by
Without a single soulful kiss
It’s not your fault and it’s not mine
Our lives have come to this.

We cannot let the world invade
The sanctity of us
We’ve worked too hard at building it
On kindness, love, and trust. 

BRIDGE
Oh, babe, I need to retreat
Inside of you
Inside of you.

Oh, babe, I need to restore
My heart in you
My heart in you.
