One More Night

One More Night Please stay with me one more night. I don't want you to leave me. The night is very cold. Please give me your warmth. Stay just this night, I won't ask for more. Put a bow on this night and make it a gift. Tomorrow you can go, before the sun comes out. It will still be dark but you can leave. You will place a kiss on my forehead and you will say goodbye. You will think that I'm asleep. I will already have left before you - only you didn't see me go. My body will be there and my soul will see you go. I wish for you the best in your travels throughout this life. I will always be greatful for you spending with me the last of my nights...
