I wish you could stay

+43

I wish that you could stay all through the night
And to hold you past the morning light
But the dawn is closing in with every breath that you breathe
And in a few hours, I know that you will have to leave
So I lay here and watch you while you sleep
And I gently kiss you as I breathe you in oh so deep
For I think about what my life might have been
If you hadn’t come along and touched my heart from so deep within
My undying devotion is what to you I will always give
And it will only be you that I love, so long as I live
