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
