If i could, i would merge my night into day so you would never leave with the rising of the sun.

At night when you speak, all the world stands still;
In the day, it's the same, but the silence can kill.

At night when you speak, the smile is in your eyes, and all of my warmth is returned;
In the day, the smile remains, but the words do nothing but burn.

When you appear in my dreams, it's only for me;
The joy comes not from "to do" but "to be."

If the time that you spend by my side were spent in the light,
I'd know God's gift to me as a heart released to flight.

All of the peace of a night spent asleep would i give just to see this at last;
Nevertheless, my heart drops for fear of the day you will turn into the past.

If i could, i would merge my night into day so you would never leave with the rising of the sun.
One day, should God smile on me, i'll find you again in yet another place and rest with you as one.

*i don't make things rhyme much because, well, can't you tell?
