I know someday death will take hold of you
It will take me from you or you from me
It is very sad but indeed it’s true
At some later point we will have to see

I’ll love you ‘til death, and still thereafter
I wonder the days that are left in life
But for now I hope life’s filled with laughter
Even if sometimes we laugh at our strife

I love you even when I think I do not
I love you and need you more than I know
It’s because you’re you, and not all you’ve got
Between you and me, death’s our only foe

Yet death does help people to see one thing
It’s how much they love the one that’s missing
