The narrator appeals to the enduring nature of their bond, begging their partner to linger until the moon gives up the sky and the stars lose their glow. The ballad concludes with a powerful, poignant declaration of unwavering devotion, as the protagonist insists they still have an entire lifetime left to love them. - Mastered by mixea.commore
