She was it all

The incoming storm

Never had thought it would end

Never had thought it would end

 

Life has in store

To take what means more

Never had thought it would end

Never had thought it would end

 

Then you lay down and never spoke

I waited silent when I woke

I couldn’t dam the flow of time

When you were mine

 

Now I will go

Fevered in tow

Never had thought it would end

Never had thought it would end

Barely aware

Of her quizzical stare

Never had thought it would end

Never had thought it would end

 

Now I lay down and grip her hand

Is she within to understand

We’ll roam as one as we decline

In these end times
