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 of 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.
Oh please don't take it all away.
