In the morning, i wish for
just a little bit longer,
to hold you. to close my eyes. to dream.
The day comes crashing through the windows
and the seconds are just too short.
my eyes are tired.
I get up, get dressed, and wish i had
just a little bit longer,
to make myself a bagel, or some tea
Or to curl my hair and feel pretty
But I'm already late
and what's one more morning that i havent eaten?
At work, my head pounds in frustration, and i wish for
just a little bit longer
to finish debugging this awful code
So i don't have to take my troubles home with me
But the code blurs together
And i just cant finish it.
I go home, reach into my mailbox, and pull out a stack of bills
Don't they understand, i need
just a little bit longer
to get caught up.
Everything is a glaring due date,
And i'm just too far behind.
In a bed of bubbles, i sink into the soap
and let the warmness wash over me
Trying to drown my pretences, and i wish for
just a little bit longer
to escape from what's outside that door
But time floats by and bubbles burst...
that's life.
Laying next to this boy who holds my heart, i wish i had
just a little bit longer
to savor moments like these,
late at night, in his arms, where nothing bad can touch me
but the nights turn into days so quickly,
that i tend to miss my kiss goodnight...
i'm alseep before our lips even touch.
I wish we could stay young,
just a little bit longer...
i wish this place still held promises for us,
Like it used to.
I wish we wouldn't have to worry about tomorrow
And we could be dance all night,
just a little bit longer,
before the music fades and the sun comes up
I wish the weekend would last
just a little bit longer
so i could get my laundry done,
and my nails done,
and my catching up on last week done...
but the seconds slip through my sore hands,
and i just cant grasp them.
i wish i could have had you (you know who you are)
just a little bit longer
before i lost you
i wish the last time we hugged,
we would have held on
just a little bit longer
and maybe i'd still be able to remember it
but i dont...
i wish you would have loved me,
just a little bit longer
but you moved away
and never came back for me
and it will be
just a little bit longer
til i forget how bad you hurt me.
i wish my friends that i saw go, could have been here
just a little bit longer
but life is short
and you dont get extra moments to say goodbye...
so you hold on tight now, while you can,
just a little bit longer,
so that if you never see them again,
you can have a more perfect memory.
I hope we hold on,
just a little bit longer
to the children in us...
i'm not ready to grow up
i want to color with crayons
just a little bit longer
before people start to think
i'm crazy.
