I'm holding you tightly, afraid to let go

Your sobs lessen to near nothing, I can barely feel you breathe

I don't want you to go, you're the only one who knows

Everyone else is just too blind to see

The love I have for you

And the love you have for me

Lying in the dark, my arms around your waist

Oh dear God what would I do?

If you suddenly floated away

I want you safe here in my arms

But there's not much more I can do

I truly am afraid that the rest is up to you

You've become a mere shadow

Among the ones we once called friends

A shell, empty of all it once held dear

You're fading fast, you won't make it through

Because everyone's just too blind

To see the love you have for me

And the love I have for you
