I've been looking for an answer in the sky Can you hear me? 'Cause I need a reason why I think I'm in trouble with my heart out on my sleeve So I'm calling, mmm, 'cause I need her as I live and breathe Don't let the sun go down, 'cause tomorrow she'll be gone Give me one more day and I'll make her stay Hold back the night If you're really there and you hear my prayer Hold back the night, hold back the night, oh the night Every minute it gets closer to goodbye Can't you give me, oh, just a few more hours to change her mind Don't let tomorrow in, 'cause I just can't face it alone Give me one more day and I'll make her stay Hold back the night If you're really there and you hear my prayer Hold back the night, hold back the night, oh the night I watch the light fading to black I'm counting on you to build me a bridge, so I can bring her back Don't let the sun go down, 'cause tomorrow she will be gone Give me one more day and I'll make her stay Hold back the night If you're really there and you hear my prayer Hold back the night (One more day, make her stay) Hold back the night If you're really there and you hear my prayer Hold back the night

Tried to keep you close to me But life got in-between Tried to square not bein' there But think that I should've been Hold back the river Let me look in your eyes Hold back the river so I Can stop for a minute And see where you hide Hold back the river Hold back Once upon a dear friend, life We rode our bikes into the sky And now we crawl against the tide Those distant days are flashing by Hold back the river Let me look in your eyes Hold back the river so I Can stop for a minute And see where you hide Hold back the river Hold back Hold back the river Let me look in your eyes Hold back the river so I Can stop for a minute And be by your side Hold back the river Hold back Lonely water The lonely water Won't you let us wander? Let us hold each other Lonely water Lonely water Won't you let us wander? Let us hold each other Hold back the river Let me look in your eyes Hold back the river so I Can stop for a minute And be by your side Hold back the river Hold back Hold back the river Let me look in your eyes Hold back the river so I Can stop for a minute And see where you hide Hold back, hold back Lonely water Lonely water Won't you let us wander? Let us hold each other
