lyrics

I know it looms,
my heart it tells,
for we are doomed
like everybody else.

There comes a time
when legs can't move
and bells can't chime
and hearts can't choose.

At once we'll stop
to be, to breathe,
and off we'll chop
each other's memories.

Just guess how sad
and guess how weary
and guess how mad
we both will be.

When nothing's left
but our regrets
and deepened clefts
and dimlit sets,

will we behave?
Will we believe
in what we have
or will we grieve?

It freezes my
heart to know
we both will die
and die alone.

After our life,
what will we keep?
Beyond all strife,
beyond our sleep,

I'll hold your smile
as a keepsake
and wonder why
it was not fake.
