Grieve Me Not

If I spent my life with you Could spare me some time too If I gave me for you Would you know that is was true I can't go on without you Can't make change without a dollar If I spend some time with you maybe I'd feel taller Until you knock me right back down again Could you take a chance and listen The cries I yell to you To let you know I wanted only the best for you If I gave you my world would you destroy that as well Would you curse me and outcast me and condemn me to hell If I offered to you my heart from my bleeding chest Would you try to mend it before it come apart again Will you be the one to take my last breath in your sight Could you give me just a moment to make it through the night Will you be there by my bedside whilst I wither away to bone Or would you walk off like everyone else just to remind me I am meant to be alone To me you were everything and gave me reason to breath Life is so much forgiving to us on the night we leave Time for me is pointless because I'm only counting grief
