Everyday I Try To Stop Time So I Can Be With You Forever

I turn back the hands of the antique grandfather But the seconds continue but for you I still bother I take the batteries out of every clock To call on you again and to hear your remark I have succumb to my love and I’m working in my life’s endeavor Everyday I try to stop time so I can be with you forever I put more sand in the hour- glass Hoping it will work and the minutes will not pass To be together I will use all of my will I pray to god that the moment can stand still I have succumb to my love and I’m working in my life’s endeavor Everyday I try to stop time so I can be with you forever I’ll do what I have to do and I will not botch I’ll rip up every calendar and break every watch I’ll block out the light to shadow the sundial Just to get a second look at your beautiful smile I have succumb to my love and I’m working in my life’s endeavor Everyday I try to stop time so I can be with you forever To keep our passion locked away in our home I’ll stop the clicks of every metronome Do you understand my words and what I’m trying to convey For you I’d stop the sun and moon to get just one more day
