1.1 Sorry I never told you

All I wanted to say

And now it's too late to hold you

'Coz you've flown away

So far away

Hermione cradled Harry's head in her arms. Endless tears were falling from her eyes. Ron was lying on the ground, unconscious. Hermione hugged Harry, determined not to let go.

"No, Harry, no," she moaned. "Please, don't, don't leave me…"

1.2 Never had I intended to live without your smile

Feeling and knowing you're near me

It keeps me alive

Alive…

"Why, Harry? Why? Tell me," Hermione sobbed. She didn't notice Ron getting up from behind her.

"How am I supposed to live now, Harry? Tell me!"

1.3 And I know you're shining down on me from heaven

Like so many friends we've lost along the way

And I know eventually we'll be together

One sweet day

Hermione felt a hand on her shoulder. She turned to see Ron.

"Shh…" Ron whispered. "It'll be all right… Everything'll be okay…"

But Hermione was not convinced, and she could see that neither was Ron.

1.4 Sorry I never told you

Assumed you'd always be there

And I, I took your presence for granted

But I always cared

I miss the love we shared

"C'mon, let's go back inside the castle," Ron motioned for Hermione to follow him.

"I'll be right there," replied Hermione. Then she turned back to Harry's cold, pale, lifeless face.

"I'm sorry, Harry," she whispered. "I'm really sorry. I… I had no idea this would happen… if I had known, then I would've…"

She sighed. Why did you have to die, Harry? Why did you have to die when I haven't even told you yet…

"I love you, Harry," she told the lifeless body. "I've loved you ever since. I was just too… too scared… to let you know. But now it's too late."

Then she fainted.

Dumbledore came out and approached Hermione. He conjured up two stretchers and gently placed Harry on one and Hermione on the other. Then he led the way up towards the castle, the two stretchers trailing behind him.

1.4.1 And I know you're shining down on me from heaven

Like so many friends we've lost along the way

And I know eventually we'll be together

One sweet day…
