The First Sight of You

(Intro)

(A slow, warm acoustic guitar melody starts, like sunlight peaking through the blinds)

(Sound of a soft yawn)

Good morning, Babe...

Wake up.

(Verse 1)

You’re snoozing like a baby, tucked in deep

Lost in a world of quiet sleep

But I’m wide awake, watching you drift

Counting the seconds, giving the bed a lift

I start to shake your shoulder, whisper in your ear

A constant chatter just so you can hear

You groan and mumble, turning away

"Give me ten minutes to start the day."

(Chorus)

But I only give you five

Just enough to feel alive

I’m irritating you, I know it’s true

But I just want to spend the morning with you

Habibi, open up your eyes

The sun is out, the honey-colored skies

Are waiting for us, can’t you see?

Just wake up for me, Habibi.

(Verse 2)

You take your five, you try to hide

But I’m climbing up for a morning ride

I lean down close to steal a kiss

A wake-up call you can’t possibly miss

You get so grumpy, you start to scream

"Let me sleep!"—ruining my scheme

You push me down with a sleepy hand

But I’ve got another way planned.

(Bridge)

I reach out and grab you, pull you close

The kind of cuddling you love the most

Now you’re on top of me, heart to heart

This is the best way for a day to start

I’m waiting for the moment, the one I adore

When you struggle with the sleep just a little bit more.

(Verse 3)

It’s so amusing, watching you fight

To open those eyes and let in the light

Your lashes flutter, you’re squinting at me

It’s the most beautiful thing I’ll ever see

So I kiss your eyelids, one and then two

Helping the morning vision come through

And the very first thing that comes into trace

Is the smile sitting right here on my face.

(Chorus)

And I only give you five

Just enough to feel alive

I was irritating you, I know it’s true

But I just want to spend the morning with you

Habibi, open up your eyes

The sun is out, the honey-colored skies

Are waiting for us, can’t you see?

I love you so much, Habibi.

(Outro)

Isn't it a wonderful imagination?

Who enjoys this more than us?

Just stay right here.

I love you.

(Music fades out with the sound of a soft kiss)

Yours truly, Habibi.
