Stay Until I'm Dead

My love, I have one last request..
would you stay with me until the sun stars to rise?
Hold me throughout this long night,
Lay with me, love, until the light leaves my eyes?

I feel the time coming,
the clock speeds ahead,
please Love, would you maybe
stay until I'm dead?

Wrap your arms around me,
Hold me until my last breath,
Let your memory capture and envelope me
Let me carry this memory into my death.

And Darling, please, hold my hands,
even though they're so cold..
Please, I'm begging, keep holding on..
Don't let me die alone.

Let your eyes be my last light,
let your smile be the last thing I see.
Please love, let "I love you" be the last thing I hear
before I have to leave.

Hold me close to you tonight,
Please, lay with me until I rest my head,
hold me in your arms, my dearest love
Please.. stay until I'm dead.
