Last Breath

please dont let me go
dont let me fade into death.
love me to keep my heart beating
kiss me to give me last breath.

hold me to keep me close
dont let death take me away
keep me far from the path i just chose.
open my eyes so i wont see the light
dont let it blind me i dont want to leave.

love me once more, my heart is still failing
kiss me again before my lungs stop
tell me you love me to keep my mind hearing
please do it quick before my world drops.

i can feel myself going, heaven cant wait
just try it once more before its too late.

i feel your tears as they call time of death
but kiss me once more to catch my last breath.
