I NEED LONGER
I NEED LONGER
I need longer than this small amount of time
I need longer with your body close to mine
I need longer to tell you what I’ll miss
I need longer with the sweet taste of your kiss
I need longer to look at the stars that shine brightly in your eyes
I need longer to listen to your breathing and your sighs
I need longer to grant you all your secret wishes
I need longer giving you all my special kisses
I need longer to always make you smile
I need longer so please stay here awhile
I need so much longer darling
for I’ll always love you so
Please do not say
“I’m sorry, but it’s time for me to go.”
