Oh lord please give me 
a little time on these legs 
I need to get to the store 
then climb those stairs 

If I could have just
a little while on this back 
I need to sit for a while 
to give the feet a rest 

I wouldn’t ask too much 
another day with these eyes 
to see her face once more 
before I lose my sight 

then maybe a moment 
with these hands 
I just wanted to touch 
the hem of your dress
