hold on
If I could hold you again I'd never let go.
Our bodies entwine as time quickly goes,
You whisper things into my ear, the wind blows.
I shudder, but you draw me close.
Time elapses and you have to go.
My mind tells me yes, but my body screams no.
Slowly, I let you depart, though I still hear the racing of your heart.
Alone, I watch you as you drive away,
I take a deep breathe,
I miss your embrace.
Silently I crawl into bed, but all my thoughts go around in my head.
I lay there and wonder as I turn out the lights,
What our future will hold, then I close my eyes.
Time goes quickly, and the next thing I know,
I'm standing at your grave it's covered with snow.
The night was dark, he didn't look twice,
Your friend he stole your life.
Tears stream down from my face,
I can still hear your heart, I hold my hands around my waist.
I think over and over "how could I have reversed fate"?
But not, I didn't hold on, and now its too late.
If only it coud have been reversed,
The words I think now, I would have said first.
I love you, I loved you that night.
Your taken away, youv'e gone from my life.
I was careless, I let you go,
You should have stayed longer,
If I had only known.
Now I have learned, my next moment could be my last,
So I hold on to what I love.
Hold on and fast.
