I won't love you tomorrow
Not today
Not the next
Nor will I allow my heart
To beat straight from my chest

Shall another soul
Come and take me away,
It'll burn with all of the burdens
You've branded me with today

For a love is a loss
And a loss is a pace
So I'll pace myself greatly
Until the day that I face
That the winds will still kiss me
And the sun shall still hold
All the curves of my body
And the lips of my soul
