Pavana - Polina Nazaykinskaya

"If I Had One More Day" by Polina Nazaykinskaya and Konstantin Soukhovetski. Poem by Gerald Appelstein.
Performed by Michael Corvino, baritone and Konstantin Soukhovetski, piano

If I had one more day

I’d spend it driving to your fav’rite place

Catching you every time you fell 

Showing care, always wishing well


If I had one more hour

I’d make sure to ask `bout your secret dreams

Hoping you might ease your mind

Thinking that I could have helped in time

Finding a way to share in the things you love

Wondering if you know all this from above

Silly to feel time will never waste away

Now it has stopped, wish you had planned to stay

If I had one more minute

I’d try so hard to hug your face

If I had one more minute

I’d try so hard to hug your face and say farewell


Breaking away from those who would steal

Listening well that you knew it was real


One more, one more… 


If I had one more second 

I’d stop to take a picture of your smile

Watching you light up the room

Clenching this last beat until the gloom


Finding a way to endure without your love

Wond`ring if you know this up above

Finding a way to endure without your love

With you high above

With you high above
