I never should have waited so long to say
What I've always known since the very first day
thought that you would stay forever with me
but the time has come to leave

before we turn off the lights
and close our eyes
i'll tell you a secret
i held all my life
its you that i live for
and for you i die
so i lay here with you
till the final goodbye

holding me close
close to my lips
listen intently
when i tell you this
outside the world
wages its war
i'll rest in peace
as long as you know

before we turn off the lights
and close our eyes
i'll tell you a secret
i've held all my life
its you that i live for
and for you i die
so i lay here with you
till the final goodbye

promise our love
would carry on
until time eternal we belong

before we turn off the lights
and close our eyes
i'll tell you a secret
i held all my life
its you that i live for
and for you i die
so i lay here with you
till the final goodbye

its these broken lips
for the last time
spell out the lyrics
to love in the sky
its you that i live for
and for you i die
so i lay here with you
till the final goodbye
