I lay beside you, I feel you smile,
Your eyes linger quite a while.
I cherish the warmth, I hide in your stare.
I feel the kiss you comb through my hair.
Just one answer is all I desire,
The heat of your voice that sets me on fire.
I confess my love will never slow,
The fastest forever I'll ever know.
Whenever I can't lean into your touch,
I wonder why it still hurts so much
The ring still shines through the kiss of my tears
A shackle of joy for so many years.
Beside the black candle, you alone see me cry,
And I'll ask you again. Why did you die?
