Last Night
Julie Elaine Claytor
Last night, I held you in my arms and
I started to cry,
and you looked up and squeezed your hands
onto my head like you knew why.
Today I fly across the ocean.
I will be away 20 days.
And I didn't know I would be like this,
'cause I'd be away 20 days.
Tomorrow, I'll be on a stage and
I will sing the words from all of the pages.
I will close my eyes in front of all the people.
I will close my eyes thinking of you.
But, last night, I held you in my arms and
I started to cry,
and you looked up and squeezed your hand
onto my head like you knew why.
And it was so right.
