I’m dying…

 

 

I’m dying…

In the absence of you…I’m dying

If you kissed me at this exact moment

Breathing life anew into my physical being

You would save me from a most lonely existence

My salvation in these most trying of times

Is faith in you, faith in love, and faith in us

 

I’m dying…

I feel myself slipping away

You’re not too far behind holding my hand

Together, we can save each other from a life filled with sadness

When a love like this should only bring happiness…

 

Without you to get me through this life

I’m dying…

My fear is that when all is said and done

Will all this time spent apart

Will it leave us so brokenhearted

That not even love can overcome

Will all those nites of tears falling

Of painful yearning for our hearts to no longer hurt

Will we have anything left to give

After so many years of holding on to the belief

That for the sake of love

The pain we’ve endured is worth it

For that joyful day when we start our life together.

I’m dying…I’m dying

But not yet, there’s too much left to live for

Happiness is right around the corner

 

Jean-Pierre, Dean

(1999 I would assume correctly-so melodramatic-goodness)
