If I Could Hold Back the Dawn Lyrics
If I Could Hold Back the Dawn - Carl Smith
Written by:C. Smith
When you called me and said you had to see me
I thought you meant to start our life anew
But you told me you would wed tomorrow
And you just wanted one last Rendezvous
Tonight is our last night together
At dawn till tomorrow you'll be gone
But darling this night would last forever
If I could hold back the dawn
When you walk down the aisle with him tomorrow
To take his name and whisper dear I do
Will you be thinking of the future darling
Or thinking of my last night with you
I wish you'd never mention your tomorrow darling
When you call me on the phone
But there wouldn't be a new tomorrow
If I could hold back the dawn
