I've been looking
For an answer in the sky
Can you hear me?
'Cause I need a reason why

I think I'm in trouble
With my heart out on my sleeve
So I'm calling
'Cause I need her as I live and breathe

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

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, oh
Just a few more hours to change her mind

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

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

I watch the light
Fading to black
I'm counting on you to build me a bridge
So I can bring her back...

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

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

One more day, make her stay - Hold back the night
If you're really there and you hear my prayer - Hold back the night
