don’t let the day take you away


though the hours have passed tonight

i’ve done nothing but hold you tight

for awhile you fell asleep

i prayed the Lord my soul to keep

in this moment of atonement

i cursed the day and employment

which will require i release

your fragile form of perfect peace

 

flowered beauty in full bloom

night is ending all too soon

make the day go far away

in your arms i want to stay

play “unchained melody” on my heart

the very moment that we part

write a sequel with no equal

a hymnal for love’s cathedral
