I lay in bed talking to my maker
Asking "please God, don't let it take her"
Away from me, and away from all this.
While I would do anything for one more kiss.

To hold her in my arms is all I wanted
While we stood against the world,
Bold and undaunted.

We'd smile as we walked, hand-in-hand
Through this world of darkness,
This treacherous land.

"She's my light, my partner"
I prayed to God above.
"Thanks to her, I can understand Love"

We're the dynamic duo,
Nothing keeps us apart
Except, perhaps, an attack on the heart.

But she's stronger than this, i know she'll get through
And things will be like before, old and new.

Together we can surmount this wall.
That's when my phone rang,
And the Hospital called.
