As I lay down to sleep
I thought I had your soul to keep
Then just as I drift away
I started to hear you say
That you could not be with me
Then I started to think of thee
In my dreams tonight
And I thought I just might
See you again in some lifetime ahead
But then I remembered what you had said
That you must leave me
But I didn't believe thee
Then as I awoke I realized it was true
That you had gone, That you had flew
Away once again that you had gone
But still that light had shone
Shone on me and therefore
I saw your soul down to the core
And as much as it seemed hollow
I think It was then That I began to follow
Just as in your heart you felt I wouldn't
And I said that It was possible I couldn't
I couldn't see you hurt, and in pain
Which had seemed to me completely vain
And as you thought I wouldn't come
I thought you were thinking dumb
But then the idea hit me
The idea I could not see
Then I had a different thought
The thought that I would have sought
Then In my eye I felt the tear
But then as It ended, I realized you were still here
