9 Times

Aa Harvey



9 Times
 
 
It's the wrong time of year,      
To be getting someone new.        
I need time to listen,      
To find out your God's honest truth.        
I need to know what you like,        
So I can buy the perfect gift for you.        
       
     
If we end up together,        
At least we gave it a shot, yeah.        
If we don't last until the end of forever,        
At least we got what we got.  
   
   
Wake me up with a kiss.    
I know one day you'll leave,          
But this moment in time,          
I'm not down on my knees.            
If there's hope left in you,              
Then there's hope left in me.          
If I can, I will be, all the things that you need.          
             
     
But if I'm not,          
Then can we give it a shot, yeah?      
If I'm gone,          
Can we try to hold on?    
             
     
You’re the first on my list,            
Of the only one I would kiss.          
You’re the last thing I see,          
When I put myself to sleep.          
You’re the on switch for the bliss,          
That you breathe into me.          
You’re my light in the dark          
And my easiest dream.          
             
     
But if I'm gone,          
Can we give it a shot, yeah?       
If we're not done,          
Then give me all that you've got.          
             
     
If the dream has to end          
And I lose my best friend,            
Then can we at least pretend,          
What we had was not pretend?          
             
     
And if I'm gone,          
Can we give it a shot, yeah?          
Into my head,          
If we truly are lost.          
             
     
From the time that we met,          
I knew you were the best.          
I forgot all the rest,          
Erased them all from my head.            
As we lay here in bed,          
Can we try not to forget,          
All the truth that we said?          
I still promise you zen.          
           
        
And if I'm gone,          
Know I'll always love you.          
If we are done,          
Just know I wish we weren't through,          
This time...
