Why?

It’s like the first time I saw you-
Your eyes filled with hurt and unbearable pain.
Now it’s me that’s hurting inside…
Because of that look that you wear once again.

Why? Why are you sad?!
I thought I made you happy, happy I said!
But what went wrong – and where, and why?
And no, don’t cry!- Not on this hospital bed.

That means something bad will happen.
Don’t let it be, I beg you please no, don’t cry
And don’t say those words, not right now
I won’t let this be the place we say goodbye.

Turn the machine back on, right now!
I can’t let him die; he’s the whole of my life!
I won’t let him die, he’s my world.
What seems like peace right now will turn into strife.

No, please, no, don’t say those words now!
I love you, I love- look you’re making me cry!
Fine, but this is only for you.
I’ll hold you in my arms…so then you can die.

One last kiss, oh, you’re killing me!
A kiss to break barriers, along with the pain
Now that you’re…dead…I’ll pray one more time
That maybe in heaven, I’ll hold you again.
