DON’T YOU DARE
Its the
not knowing
every minute
my heart is breaking
the thought
of losing the one I love
I watch you sleep
watch you breathe
and pray
you hold on...
just one more day
I say...
CHORUS
Don't you dare leave me
baby
don't you dare say goodbye
my heart is wrapped
in your arms
my life is shown
in your soul
Don't you dare
say goodbye
What will I do if I never get to hold you again
Or whisper “I love you” in the dark
If I never get to kiss your neck
Or hold your body close
What could I have done
Is there something I could have said
Was there a magic wand
They haven’t invented yet?
CHORUS
Why is marriage so hard?
Why must you lose your closest part?
CHORUS
Laying in the hospital bed
Family holding your hand
I put my cheek against
Your head
I hold you again
I turn down the light and whisper
“Baby, I love you”
then I softly kissed your neck
I held you close
A single tear drop fell
You died in my arms
I screamed
CHORUS
When you lose someone you love, you go through stages; anger is one of those stages. A friend of mine lost his wife and was just angry; at everyone and everything- even her. So, I wrote this for him.
