I wish all the time
that I could hold back the dawn,
so we could spend more hours together,
before once again from my arms
you are gone.
I wish the night would never end,
with you under the moon and stars,
and the harsh reality
of going back to work
would never come.
That we could rest within each other’s arms,
never having to let you go.
Oh, how I just wish,
that I could just hold back the dawn.
