May I Love You One More Minute

My, how slowly this life turns
I can hardly feel it move
In my heart the feeling yearns
To beat as one inside of you

To be yours for mere, an instant
In the shadow of the moon
May I love you one more minute,
Before our time goes passing through?

There was something about the look
On your face, that I could see
Perhaps a feeling I mistook
Of us together in a dream

I break down each time we fight
And know my heart is hardly in it
Before the darkness steals our light,
May I love you one more minute?

I would fly you to the mountains
Maybe drive you to the beach
Take a drink from summer fountains
Race our hearts along the street

Wherein each memory you are saved
We take our feelings to the limit
But before you turn and fade,
May I just love you for a minute?
