Before the dawn I hear you whisper
In your sleep don't let the morning take him
Outside the birds begin to call
As if to summon up my leaving
It's been a lifetime since I found someone
Since I found someone who would stay
I've waited too long and now you're leaving
Oh please don't take it all away
It's been a lifetime since I found someone
Since I found someone who would stay
I've waited too long and now you're leaving
Oh please don't take it all away
Before the dawn I hear you whisper
In your sleep don't let the morning take him
In your sleep don't let the morning take him
Outside the birds begin to call
As if to summon up my leaving
It's been a lifetime since I found someone
Since I found someone who would stay
I've waited too long and now you're leaving
Oh please don't take it all away
It's been a lifetime since I found someone
Since I found someone who would stay
I've waited too long and now you're leaving
Oh please don't take it all away
Before the dawn I hear you whisper
In your sleep don't let the morning take him

"Don't let the morning take him" supports it, because come morning they'll be gone again.
Feel free to chop it down if you like, but that's what the lyrics mean to me.
I quote everyone who said that JP are really underrated, when it comes to the lyrics. I think they're absolutely... magical. They're the Judas Priest, theyrselves, that's the best I may pretend from a band.

the song is from the boy's voice. its great
I agree that it's about someone dying and being desired by their lover. Wishing they wouldn't have to leave.
