The future seemed dimmer and unbearably cold The nights we learned there's a meanness in this world And it will find you I still recall the yellow flowers you held My room in the basement and the nights it rained like hell Until the morning Now there is a light that sharply divides this This great expanse of space and time With you on your side and me on mine If this should be the last song I sing I'd I'd like to tell you just one thing How I loved you desperately I'll rattle the screws loose on this hospital bed Sickly and stirring from the things I should have said When I said nothing I should have known you would have listened to me You'd save me from drowning in the secrets that I keep You could have saved me Now there is a light that sharply divides this This great expanse of space and time With you on your side and me on mine If this should be the last song I sing I'd I'd like to tell you just one thing I loved you, I still love you desperately
