Just One More

Liner Notes

Seems like something/someone I care about is always ending. I am not fond of endings. So why do I write songs about them? Working through it somehow? I dunno.

just one more
sip of that coffee
just one more
taste of that pie
just one more minute
with everyone in it
no reason to even
ask why
no reason to even
ask why

just one more
look at that sunset
just one more
gaze at that sky
just one more hour
to pick pretty flowers
before it all
fades out of sight
before it all
fades out of sight

is it too much to ask
for the good times to last
must everything end here today
with a little more time
we can calm our wild minds
please do not take us away

just one more
embrace from my lover
just one more
cuddle at night
just one more day
to live, love and play
before we all kiss this
goodbye
before we all kiss this
goodbye

I think this is even more dark than the others. this has a heavy emotional pull is pretty sad. lovely music to soften the blow especially that guitar.
