(life)

I long for days like this
|
My heart pounds when you are near
|
The gift of life
|
Treasure it, for it is pure
|
Embrace it with all your heart
|
|
Not a thousand years of pain
|
Would be worth the loss of this
|
I hold for you a special gift
|
And on this day, a new life begins
|
|
(torn)
|
Facade the day of forest green
|
And calm my breath with words of plight
|
A question I ponder this hour
|
The light for me, or shadows engulf
|
|
(death)
|
I am the answers you seek
|
You stand before me
|
And I see your sorrow
|
Even now, in your agony
|
You can have your doubt
|
For one last time
|
|
(torn)
|
Do I make make the sacrifice?
|
To walk among the restless souls?
|
How can I let this go on?
|
Torn between love and life
|
All is dead in my eyes
|
|
(death)
|
Close your eyes and welcome the truth
|
Innocence is so sweet
|
For only the aging of the flesh
|
Shall rain upon the sorrows of life
|
|
Admire this touch of heaven
|
Before it fades.
|
I remember days of old,
|
And through your grief, one stands clear.
|
I can see you forge a smile
|
|
All these flowers are turning to snow
|
For all is lost in your heart
|
It's only her love that keeps you alive
|
Now's the time for your pain to end
|
|
(life)
|
How can I ever live without you?
|
This all seems so perfect
|
So perfect, until I dream of you
|
And your smile is my sunshine
|
|
You deserve more then this
|
Your saviour has come
|
A strong soul to carry on
|
To take you home
|
I need you here with me
|
Follow me now
|
To pick me up when I fall
|
Before the sunlight fades
|
