Hold me close before I slip away
Words are now useless so I resfuse to say
A silent night, clear dark sky
Wishing for one careless moment with you
Before I say goodbye.

I can feel the warmth of the air that you breathe
And I would still feel it
If I was six foot beneath.

I can melt in those memories in which you dwelt
I will never share my miseries
That I had always felt.
