One Last Time

Burning pain sears through my soul
Alone, my flesh grows cold
Once you stood by me
Now you're just a fading memory

To hold you one last time
Feel your heartbeat next to mine
Your soft caress
Your loveliness

The one I love
Now dead and gone
Oh how I wish
That I could reach back in time
And pull you back

To cherish what once was
And live with the memory
That as I love
You once loved me

Though flesh and blood
Will all pass away
My love to you
Will never die
Will never die
Will never die

The cold embrace
of vacant empty

To hold you one last time
Your heartbeat next to mine...
