Just shroud me
And leave me to death.
For the pain of your leaving
Is too much to bear.

Long have we love,
Forgetting all those that came before.
Living our lives with love,
Living our lives in each other’s arms.

Life was cruel to me,
By taking away
That which was mine,
That person I lived for.

My love was sick,
And nothing could save
The person I’d loved
For so long and so much.

This love was everything,
It brought me life,
It brought me excitement
It brought me home.

But again fate took over,
Took the one I loved,
So just leave me,
Let me die.

Let me die,
I cannot bear
To be without
The soul I loved.
