Story: We've told our lies and stolen a night together... on a blanket of love.

BLANKET OF LOVE
©Rob Russell Davies 2002

On a blanket of love late at night
As we lay and watch the stars
Like two shadows curled up on the ground
We can hide away the scars
On a blanket of love out of sight
No-one knows we are here, no-one sees but the sky
Just a moment alone, you and I
On a blanket of love

On a blanket of love you are safe
I can shield you from the pain
And you're warm as you're wrapped in my arms
We can shelter from the rain
On a blanket of love there's no fear
No-one's breaking your heart, no-one's keeping you here
Just a moment of truth we can share
On a blanket of love

We've stolen tonight and told him lies
And when the day breaks you must decide
Then maybe you'll find where you belong
But don't worry now, we'll get there somehow
Tomorrow can wait, we're living for today
And hold back those tears, you've nothing to fear
You've nothing to fear...

On a blanket of love next to me
As the moon fades in the sky
Soon the sun will rise up from the sea
And we'll kiss and say goodbye
But the blanket of love will stay warm
Every night I'll wait here from the dusk 'till the dawn
Looking out to those big city lights
From this blanket of love

Blanket of love (repeated)
