I’ll hold you
Til my heart burns out
My lips not speak
And
My eyes won’t cry.
Then and only then
Will I let you go
Free
To be in eternity.
I’ll still be there
And
Together we’ll share
A love so strong
Not a word or a universe
Can keep us apart.
For you, you see
Will always be
A burning
A burning in my heart.
