Should I die tomorrow
Will you carry me down that isle?
How would you handle
Seeing me lay there
As if sleeping

Will you carry me down?

Your tears would fall
Upon my cold skin
Never to feel the warmth
Of your touch
Never to see
Your smile
Nor to hear your voice

Will you carry me down?

Could you face me
As they lower me into the ground
Under the ever graying skies
Would the rain wash away
Your sadness
And pain
As they shovel dirt
Onto me
As I lay
In my final resting place

Will you carry me down?

Would you visit me
Every year
On the day of my death
Or would you walk away forever
I am asking you

Will you carry me down the isle on that final day?
