the lady is dying
she bends back like a wave
as her spirit is climbing
through the hospital wall and away
and i wanted to hold you
as you made your escape
but now i should have told you
when your eyes were alive and awake
always in life we all must make this mistake
and so i go it alone
and the pressure is great
i hold on to my own
oh please oh don't go away
i wanted to know you
before you started to fade
but i gave everything to
a lie and a farce and a fake |
