He said to lose my life
or lose my love
That's the nightmare
I've been running from
So let me hold you
in my arms a while
I was always careless
as a child
And there's a part of me
that still believes
My soul will soar
above the trees
But a desperate fear
flows through my blood
That our dead love's
buried beneath the mud
Let's grow old together
and die at the same time
Let's grow old together
and die at the same time
I said "I've got no time
I have to go"
And I was more right
then now I'll ever know
He said "My heart is faint
will minds regret?"
And left him crying
next to the chapel steps
Let's grow old together
and die at the same time
Let's grow old together
and die at the same time
he said
Let's grow old together
and die at the same time
Let's grow old together
and die at the same time
he said
He said to lose my life
or lose my love
That's the nightmare
I've been running from
so let me hold you
in my arms a while
I was careless as a child
there's a part of me
that still believes
My soul will soar
above the trees
a desperate fear
flows through my blood
Our dead love's buried
beneath the mud
a desperate fear
flows through my blood
Our dead love's buried
beneath the mud
