Stray Thoughts

He comes to me and sets my thoughts astray

He comes to chase the midnight blues away

He's sweet to taste and strong to touch

And with his second sight

He steals away the lonesomeness of night

It seems that heaven's looked on me and smiled

It sent the sun in place of candlelight

Tumbled out my wildest dreams

Tossed away my worst

Has heaven sent a blessing or a curse?

He talks to me, but nothing does he tell

He talks but keeps his secret safe and well

Still, I cannot help but reach for him

With these helpless hands of mine

So, I hug him close and pray to God he's mine

He comes to me and sets my thoughts astray

He comes to chase the midnight blues away

He's sweet to taste and strong to touch

I find myself inclined

To hug him close and pray to God he's kind

I hug him close and pray to God he's kind
