Your life shouldn't stop because mine has,
Your heart should still beat even though mine is broken,
You should sleep through the night even if I can't,
And your face should still hold a real smile even if mine is fake,
But please,
Don't go too far away from where I've stopped,
Slow down and let me catch up;
Don't let your heart beat for another,
You will hear mine beat for you once more;
Don't let me go, hold on to me throughout the night,
Let me feel safe through the pain;
Don't stop smiling,
It makes my own almost feel real.
And please, love, be there when I reach tomorrow
