Take Me With You...

please don't leave me here
please don't leave me now
please, oh please, I beg you
take me with you,
surely you know how

please don't lie there so still
so seemingly asleep
please, oh please, don't leave me
for I will forever weep

please, oh please don't die now
or if you really must,
please take me along with you
don't just fade away into dust

please, I love you still
I can't bear to be alone,
how others survive such pain
to me will never be known

please, oh please just move a bit,
just enough for me to keep
the nearness of your being...
in place of my fear so deep. 

please, oh please, I beg you
please, oh please don't go...
please, oh please, I entreat you
please tell me it will be so.

Mr. Undertaker, please 
hear what I say...
don't close that lid,
upon my heart...
don't seperate my heart
from his,

don't close that lid, 
don't seal my love
in a box of fine grained wood,
let me look upon his face,
I'm sure you really could...

don't seal my love,
don't seal my fate,
just let me go with him,
he no longer walks this earth,
his voice to me is still
now he talks to angels
as someday I surely will,

don't put him in that long
black car
so sinister in its aim
to seperate our love forever
where life will never be the same .

for christy, rene, shar, me, and all of us
who wake up each day wishing it were
an older, finer day.
