While you were sleeping

While you were sleeping I crept out of my bed

I could have stayed warm and snug but I chose to run instead

I peeked through curtains to see how the weather seemed

I crept out of the bedroom, whilst you snored and dreamed

While you were sleeping I changed into my kit

I tiptoed down the stairs, they creaked a little bit

I had a slice of toast and a cup of tea

Trying not to wake you all I was as quiet as I could be

While you were sleeping I headed out of the door

I was off to run maybe 10 miles maybe more

Whilst I was running picking up the pace

The countryside was waking and miracles were taking place

WhIle you were sleeping I was running home again

The sun was shining brightly as I pounded down the lanes

I opened up the front door as quietly as I could

You were still all sleeping and my long run had been good
