The Final Say

Where does the time go
When we’re together
Seems like a heartbeat
And the night is all but gone
Where is it written
The world must keep turning
We must surrender
To the dark
What it would matter
If the stars could keep shining
One minute longer
What harm could it do
I can’t imagine
Who take exception
Knowing how much each moment means to me and you
So make a wish upon the stars
Ask a favor of the moon
Could they hold out a little longer
And not give in so soon
Could they somehow work together
To keep the sun at bay
And maybe just this one time
Love can have the final say
How do we make time
Listen to reason
How do we ever appeal to the powers that be
For a few extra moments
To begin in ours free lives
All the true lovers
Like you and me
So make a wish upon the stars
Ask a favor of the moon
Could they hold out a little longer
And not give in so soon
Could they somehow work together
To keep the sun at bay
And maybe just this one time
Love can have the final say
Maybe just this one time
Love will have the final say
