Haunt me In my dreams If you please Your breath is with me now and always It's like a breeze So should you ever doubt me If it's help that you need Never dare to doubt me And if you want to sleep I'll be quiet Like an angel As quiet as your soul could be If you only knew You had a friend like me So should you ever doubt me If it's help that you need Never dare to doubt me
