Reason To Be

My love lies beside me breathing soft and slowly
 Deep in slumber holy out on a sapphire sea
 On her lips but barely a gentle smile is playing
 A hint of come what maying as she lies close to me
 She is the one touch of heaven I know
 Here on this vagabond planet below
 Deep in the peace of the morning I see
 She is my reason to be
 Deep in the peace of the morning I see
 She is my reason to be
 My love finds me waiting when the dawn comes creeping
 When she is done with sleeping with a whisper prayer
 She goes to her window as she is meditating
 She knows I am waiting, she knows I'll be there
 She is the one touch of heaven I know
 Here on this vagabond planet below
 Deep in the peace of the morning I see
 She is my reason to be
 Deep in the peace of the morning I see
 She is my reason to be
 She will rise and wander through the long green grasses
 As the warm day passes she might pause to rest
 I will walk beside her hand upon her shoulder
 As we're growing older still I love her best
 She is the one touch of heaven I know
 Here on this vagabond planet below
 Deep in the peace of the morning I see
 She is my reason to be
 Deep in the peace of the morning I see
 She is my reason to be
 She is my reason to be
