To my love

Nights are cold
and dark to me
i tied this rope
to the balcony

i climbed up high
put it round my throat
jumped off hard
i held a note

you come home
to see me there
swaying softly
in the air

you scream and tears
roll down your face
you cut me down,
put me in my place

took the note
i held from my hand
read it, crying
there you stand

my words are simple
i rest my head
look me over
here's what it said

"mummy don't cry
daddy hold tight
this was so hard
but i cannot fight

to my love
you meant alot to me
to me you were
my hope to be free

but as I'm gone
please do smile
I'll only be gone
for just a little while"

as you fell
and crumpled my note
these are the words
to me you spoke

"please my darling
don't be gone
i don't want it to be over
don't be long

just remember
the times we had
remember i love you
i wont be sad

goodbye my love
ill see you again
tonight this knife
is my only friend"
