i am waiting for the sun to rise and the rays to creep up your face i am hoping when you open your eyes they will smile and crease as you wake give me ten more seconds of this time while the world can wait patiently in line until my creaking in the hall will tell it it can have me now and i ll hold even tighter than before the sense of everything alright having just been washed ashore and i ll gather my things to leave outside the bedroom door when the fall does come we will open our hearts and we ll gather the leaves like they re waste and we ll live our days holding on to the sun like a life that s about to change give me one more hour of this light while the warmth and the glow still put up a fight until the leaves are gone and winter can take us where we stand and i ll hold even tighter than before the sense of everything alright having just been washed ashore and i ll gather my things to leave outside the bedroom door give me twenty more minutes in the day and i ll write poetry and songs to blow you away but i guess for now i ll just work with the seasons as they change and i ll hold even tighter than before the sense of everything alright having just been washed ashore and i ll gather my things to leave outside the bedroom door
