Stay with me 'til the morning

muziek: Tom Parker/W.A. Mozart

(Nederlandse versie: God blijf steeds bij mij)

 

Dawn breaks above the neonlights,

soon the day dissolves the night.

Warm, the sheets caress,

my emptyness, as you leave.

 

Lying here in the afterglow,

tears in spite of all I know.

Prides a foolish sin,

I can’t give in, can’t you see.

 

Tho, you want to stay,

you’re gone before the day.

I’ll never say those words: How could I,

stay with me till the morning.    ( 2x )

 

I’ve walked the streets alone before,

safe I’m locked behind my door.

Strong in my belief,

no joy or grief, touches me.

 

But when you close your eyes,

it’s then I realise,

there’s nothing left to prove my darling,

stay with me till the morning.  ( 2x )
