The Final Say - Anne Murray

Where does the time go

When we’re together

Seems like a heartbeat

And the night is all but gone

Where is it written

The world must keep turning

We must surrender

To the dark

What it would matter

If the stars could keep shining

One minute longer

What harm could it do

I can’t imagine

Who take exception

Knowing how much each moment means to me and you

So make a wish upon the stars

Ask a favor of the moon

Could they hold out a little longer

And not give in so soon

Could they somehow work together

To keep the sun at bay

And maybe just this one time

Love can have the final say

How do we make time

Listen to reason

How do we ever appeal to the powers that be

For a few extra moments

To begin in ours free lives

All the true lovers

Like you and me

So make a wish upon the stars

Ask a favor of the moon

Could they hold out a little longer

And not give in so soon

Could they somehow work together

To keep the sun at bay

And maybe just this one time

Love can have the final say

Maybe just this one time

Love will have the final say
