I'd play a song, if you'd stay awake for just one more night.
I'd like to think she would, So good to see you.
It's been a long time. Stay awake, it's been so long.
We won't let him take you, that snake, in the fold.
What if there isn't a tomorrow. The sun will fall.
That won't happen, but it will shine in a different light.
For will it not be a different sun, if both our eyes don't see.
So please, my love, stay away,at least to hear my song.
It's go something along the lines of, hope and such.
Love will last, and it shall conquer all, but we'd smile,
And sing the chorus together, for a few bars, humming.
When you meet the sun, you can teach him the lyrics.
And he'll show you how to shine, though it won't be hard.
Not for you, not your smile, but that's awhile off now.
For now, just stay awake. Until the sun's break.
I'll whisper in your ear. For one more night. One more.
I miss you already, and you've not even left, or came.
I'll be here, just here, playing my goodbye song.
