So why are you holding my hand tonight?
Well, am I feeling so cold to the touch?
Do my eyes seem to focus on some distant point?
Why do I find it hard to talk too much?

And who was I to last forever?
I didn't promise to stay the pace
Not in this lifetime, babe,
but we'll cling together
Some kind of heaven written in your face
