Adrift

When it's dark

And the world sleeps

My dreams are the same

Panicked and lost

Adrift at sea... alone

The sunset's reflection 

Paints the water apricot

So rich in colour 

I can smell it

That lovely scent

I smile and relax

Lose myself in it

Knowing I am safe

It's your hair in my face

And the lovely smell

Of your apricot shampoo

I needn't worry

For you are close
