Hannah & Maggie As You Wake Lyrics

I am waiting for the sun to rise
And the rays to creep up your face
I am hoping, when you open your eyes
They will smile and crease as you wake

Give me ten more seconds of this time
While the world can wait, patiently in line
Until my creaking in the hall
Will tell it it can have me now

And I'll hold even tighter than before
The sense of everything alright
Having just been washed ashore
And I'll gather my things
To leave outside the bedroom door

When the fall does come, we will open our hearts
And we'll gather the leaves like they're waste
And we'll live our days holding on to the sun
Like a life that's about to change

Give me one more hour of this light While the warmth and the glow still put up a fight
Until the leaves are gone
And winter can take us where we stand

And I'll hold even tighter than before
The sense of everything alright
Having just been washed ashore
And I'll gather my things
To leave outside the bedroom door

Give me twenty more minutes in the day
And I'll write poetry and songs to blow you away
But I guess for now
I'll just work with the seasons as they change

And I'll hold even tighter than before
The sense of everything alright
Having just been washed ashore
And I'll gather my things
To leave outside the bedroom door
