Plead the fleeting moment to last

This woman's work

Heard this some time back, by Maxwell, then again in nicky's ipod by Kate Bush. I prefer Kate's version. Anywayz, one of those nice and depressing songs that's actually not that new.

Pray God you can cope.
I stand outside this woman's work,
This woman's world.
Ooh, it's hard on the man, now his part is over.
Now starts the craft of the father.

I know you have a little life in you yet.
I know you have a lot of strength left.
I know you have a little life in you yet.
I know you have a lot of strength left.

I should be crying, but I just can't let it show.
I should be hoping, but I can't stop thinking
Of all the things I should've said, that I never said.
All the things we should've done, that we never did.
All the things I should've given, but I didn't.

Oh, darling, make it go,
Make it go away.

Give me these moments back.
Give them back to me.
Give me that little kiss.
Give me your hand.

I should be crying, but I just can't let it show.
I should be hoping, but I can't stop thinking
Of all the things we should've said, that were never said.
All the things we should've done, that we never did.
All the things that you needed from me.
All the things that you wanted for me.
All the things that I should've given, but I didn't.

Oh, darling, make it go away.
Just make it go away now.

I think I'm just as selfish as anyone else or even more. Now I understand why it seemed easier then than now.
