Rain lashes hard against the pane
I hid my umbrella as you turned away in pain
Years later on this chart my hand signs its name
A sunset the curtains can’t hide reflected in the frame
The monitor waves like your fever’s fading light
Flickering warmth in the dead of night
I’m just a shadow dust in the corner’s crease
Like air around you silent offering peace
Until fate speaks and death draws near
Only my heart can buy your soul make it clear
The table is cold the countdown starts to race
On the matching list only my name takes place
No hesitation no words to explain
This is my love’s final gain or loss through the pain
(Final gain or loss)
Tear open my chest ignite the vein
My heart beats like a war drum through the strain
Fold my life into a paper crane
Stuff it in your chest though I break in vain
One last time I hear you breathe
In your pulse my name will never leave
The table is cold the countdown starts to race
On the matching list only my name takes place
No hesitation no words to explain
This is my love’s final gain or loss through the pain
(Final gain or loss)
Tear open my chest ignite the vein
My heart beats like a war drum through the strain
Fold my life into a paper crane
Stuff it in your chest though I break in vain
One last time I hear you breathe
In your pulse my name will never leave
Don’t cry don’t ask who gave this gift
As anesthesia lifts my spirit adrift
Please live well for me stay strong
(Live for me carry on)
Tear open my chest ignite the vein
My heart beats like a war drum through the strain
Fold my life into a paper crane
Stuff it in your chest though I break in vain
One last time I hear you breathe
In your pulse my name will never leave
Listen to that sound
It’s my love profound
(My love profound)
Loving you forever bound
