Description
She says, she says, she’s dying
And then she can’t stop crying
So I cover her, I cover her from me
I’m the sight she doesn’t want to see

And I hold her, I hold her for the night
She’s lifeless in my arms, but she’s alright
Never said a word since, since falling down
To me she’s still perfect, she’s still got the crown

As the clouds start disappearing
Her face stats to clear and
She moves her hair from her face
And tries to speak from this place

She said, you know it’s eating me inside
I gasped for breath, choked down my pride
Baby, I know I messed so many things up
But now’s not the time for giving up

And she stared at me and shook her head
Touched my face and then her words fled
Out of her lips and into my ears
Out of my nightmares and into my fears

She said as she coughed as she looked at me
Baby, I’m dying, not metaphorically
She shook her head and reached for my hand
Baby, this is harder than you’ll understand

When the tears came rolling down
And her smile turned into a frown
Baby, you know I loved you for years
I clenched her hand and held my tears

I went to the hospital, the doctor was incredible
Before he began, he tried to make me comfortable
He said I was sick, he said I was dying
He said I had cancer and there’s no denying

That’s when everything was a blur
God that’s all ever I wanted was her
She was so smart, so kind and so beautiful
She was so caring, emotional, so wonderful

And as the trees sway and the wind blows
I hope that everyday she knows
I’m remembering, I’m still coming
Bring flowers, and I’m still loving----her
