Heat

I can feel the heat rising as I stand here smiling in fear While you hold my hand I see you shed a tear As you look into my eyes you keep Saying I am so happy you are here with me and that is When I begin to feel that heat rising deep within once again As we talk about our love and feelings While looking at the walls and ceilings in this Hospital It gives me the strangest feelings As we say our good byes, The heat with in you and me slowly dies, As you close your eyes and take your last breath, I will always think of you as I take my steps to the door, Hoping that I could feel that heat we had once more And I may shed a tear or two I just hope you know I will always be thinking of you And how you could make me feel the heat inside for 50 years Before we said our good byes The heat with in me in now gone just like our song
