lyrics
I saw you in a lake
In the morning chill
Even as you moved
The water just stood still
You took my hand in yours
It was cold
You didn't draw a single breath
But I could feel your pulse
Everything you were
What you might have been
Is everything I'll never know
Everything I am
Even though I cannot save you
Stay with me tonight
Promise me you'll never leave
Even if you lie
And as I stroke your hair
Upon a burning bed
Whisper that you love me
Before I know you're dead
Dreams of you just turn to madness
Each and every night
But I would trade my sanity
To kiss you one last time
All I see now is your ghost
Running from the wolves
Chasing you through eternity
Still won't heal my soul
Everything you were
What you might have been
Is everything I'll never know
Everything I am
Even though I cannot save you
Stay with me tonight
Promise me you'll never leave
Even if you lie
And as I stroke your hair
Upon a burning bed
Whisper that you love me
Before I know you're dead
Oooo ooo
What have I become
An effigy of suffering
Then it all goes numb
Even though I cannot save you
Stay with me tonight
Promise me you'll never leave
Even if you lie
And as I stroke your hair
Upon a burning bed
Whisper that you love me
Before I know you're dead
Before I know you're dead
