Before the dawn, I hear you whisper in your sleep: "Don't let the morning take him". Outside the birds begin to call, as if to summon up my leaving. It's been a lifetime since I found someone, since I found someone who would stay. I've waited too long and now you're leaving, please don't take it all away.
