Three Day's

For three days you come to me , sweep me away in your arms . 
We'll climb the stairs to my place , I'll bury my face in your chest . 
We'll kiss , 
And talk , 
Make love like its the first time , 
Every time . 

We'll share our dreams , 
Confide our hopes 
Pray that these three days will never end . 
That one day , 
Someday , 
Any day , 
We will no longer have to part . 

For three days we will loose our self's , 
Find ourselves , and love 
Play like children , 
Snuggle and kiss like teenagers , 
Make love like newly weds . 

For three days , I will be blessed . 
So blessed to look into your eyes . 
To tell you face to face , 
That I love you , 
That I always have loved you . 

We will find a little park , 
Maybe even sit beneath a large tree 
Wrapped up in each other , 
Talking 
Laughing , 
Listening , 
Sharing . 
Being 'us' for a while , 
And not you over there , 
And me over here . 

For three days I will have all I need . 
For three days I will feel content . 
For three days . I will have my love . 

Until you pack your bags , 
Look into my eyes with a heavy heart , 
A yearning not to go . 
I will scream to myself , tell myself not to let you go . 
To go with you . 
To say fuck responsibilities , 
And for once in my life , follow my heart . 

Then you will hug me tight , kiss me one last time 
As I weep , 
Face buried in your chest , 
Never wanting to let you go . 
You'll make a promise you always keep , 
That you'll be back soon , next month or so . 

You'll slide into your car , 
I'll stand and stare , 
Tears falling so hard I can barely make out your image . 
You'll smile at me , try and reassure me , 
And i'll smile back , though my heart is breaking . 

Those three days are done , and its time for you to go . 
You'll put the car in drive , 
Try not to pause , 
Or stop , 
Or think , 
Because it always makes you cry . 

You'll pull out of the lot . 
I'll watch you drive away . 
Wishing , that my baby , 
Could stay for three more days .
