Have you ever wanted the night to last,
Often on your own if lucky partner with you,
Not a trouble in the world you lye there in contentment,
Snug and tight no feelings of resentment,
Dozing sleeping making love,
No worries there about you,
But even if you are on your own you can lye there with no worries,

But the morning comes along so soon
the birds they start a chattering,
Traffic moves the silence has now been broken,
All of a sudden its a brand new day
that brings its problems with it,
Letters bills dropping through the door
Your troubles are back around you,
ringing phone others moan, they pass their problems to you,
Shopping, mopping running round,
at least you have the night before you,
No knocking doors, no ringing bells,
No people to deplore you,
For once again the night comes back,
And all your troubles vanish,
Back there in your cosy bed, tired, sleepy making love.
Or if you are there all alone no worries there around you,
For once again the night is here and peace and quiet become you.

David Bennett.
