Intro Verse If you could wait a moment longer, The sun would rise before the morn. The shadows from the skies would vanish, And the day be twice as long. Chorus Every minute be an hour, Every hour a loving kiss, Every kiss a fresh spring flower, Sparkling in the morning mist. If you were here again beside me, The running waters I would hold. And turn their flow to you, my lover, To wash your feet, your hair of gold. Chorus Every drop a silver crystal, Every crystal all aglow, Every glow a breath of beauty, From your skin like dimpled snow. But since you've gone, the light has faded, Birds are silent in the wood. The grass still trampled in a hollow, Marks the spot on which you stood. Chorus Every tree a sad reminder, Every branch a memory bare, Every memory tinged with sorrow That you are gone and I still care. Outro
