Cover You With Love
19 June, 2003
Author: Ben Laney
When the night
Runs deep and cold
And the world
Is tearing at your soul
Bring your heart
To my warm arms to hold
I will cover you
Cover you with love
When your trust
Has been betrayed
And false friends
Turn to new Masquerades
Come to me
My feelings never fade
I will cover you
Cover you with love
When you ache
And long for peace
And no one's there
Who makes you feel at ease
You don't have to
Beg or say please
I will cover you
Cover you with love
I will cover you
Like sand covers a dune
I will cover you
Like moon-dust covers the moon
I will cover you
Like feathers cover a dove
I will cover you
Cover you with love
