I've been looking for an answer in the sky

Can you hear me? 'Cos I need a reason why

I think I'm in trouble, with my heart out on my sleeve

So I'm calling, 'cos I need her as I live and breathe



Don't let the sun go down, 'cos tomorrow she'll be gone



Chorus:

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 just a few more hours to change her mind

Don't let tomorrow in, 'cos I just can't face it alone



chorus



I watch the light fading to black

I'm counting on you to build me a bridge, so I can bring her back



(Instrumental break)



Don't let the sun go down, 'cos tomorrow she will be gone



chorus



(One more day, make her stay) hold back the night

If you're really there and you hear my prayer, hold back the night
