Daylight stares into my eyes
Reminds me of the past
Darkness closes in
And takes me far away to another world
Maybe if the day would last
Maybe if the nights they wouldn't pa**
He'd be here today
Maybe it time would stand still
Maybe if God gave me the will
He'd be here today
I was only ten
Charlie's best friend
God I love him so
Running in the park
Playing after dark
Why'd he have to go
Maybe if the days would last
Maybe if the nights they wouldn't pa**
He'd be here today
Maybe it time would stand still
Maybe if God gave me the will
He'd be here today
Maybe if the days would last
Maybe if the nights they wouldn't pa**
He'd be here today
Maybe it time would stand still
Maybe if God gave me the will
He'd be here today
I see reflections of the past
Without him I can see how my life can last
I see him in so many faces
Running around in so many places after dark
I lock the door and throw away the key
Maybe if the days would last
Maybe if the nights they wouldn't pa**
He'd be here today
Maybe it time would stand still
Maybe if God gave me the will
He'd be here today
