Perfectly Still

Now she lays perfectly still Nothing done at her own will Curled up in a little ball She can't speak at all We've watched her all the way With her we'd cry and pray Hoping some day this will all end We could act like it was just pretend That's something we can only wish As we give her the final kiss We never know when we'll part Makes it hard to know where to start God I hope you will forgive But please don't let her live!
