If I Were to DieIf
If I Were to Die
If I were to die
I would want you in my arms, next to me, close to me, never leaving my side
I would tell you countless times that I love you
then wipe the tears from your eyes
I would hold your hand and entwine your fingers with mine
I would tell you many things that I wanted to do with you while alive
Tell you adventures and trips we would take knowing its too late to plan
Then I would tell you that I wanted to marry you knowing that I would never have enough time
Then when you look into my eyes, tears overflowing both yours and mine,
and as if life where timing our moment of goodbye
the feeling of a sharp pain in my heart would wake me up
and i would at that moment understand
you were my life, my dream, my start and beginning
I love you in a slow whisper i’ll say
Then close my eyes as I say my final goodbye
