Six thirty in the morning I'm in the middle of the sweetest dream When I hear that clock calling me I wrestle with the feeling That the day's starting way too soon I hit the button just to buy a little time To keep you in these arms of mine For another nine minutes Let the world stop Steal a few moments from this old clock 'Cause this is my dream and I want to stay in it For another nine minutes I love the way the sunlight Dances on your perfect skin Girl, I wish this night would never end But we gotta get moving Can't eat if we don't get paid But I got us a better idea Let's pull up the covers and stay right here For another nine minutes Let the world stop Steal a few moments from this old clock 'Cause this is my dream and I want to stay in it For another nine minutes I hit the button just one more time To keep you in these arms of mine For another nine minutes Let the world stop Steal a few moments from this old clock 'Cause this is my dream and I want to stay in it For another nine minutes Let the world wait Whose gonan care if we're a little bit late This is my dream and I want to stay in it
