about

I wrote this for a Bread For Life charity CD.

lyrics

My time is running out
My life is running short
I won't be on this Earth
If I don't find a cure

So, I leave my love behind
To lands far away, I might find
A way to mend my weary soul
And get my back to my Irish home

Tell me why I must die so young, so young
There's so much more I could have done
I'll be back before you know it
I'm afraid, but I don't show it
Promise me, that you will be
Strong enough for both of us
In the end, I'll come home safely, safely

How long must she wait for me?
How long 'till my destiny?
Mind numbing cold
Westerly wind

Tell me why I must die so young, so young
There's so much more I could have done
I'll be back before you know it
I'm afraid, but I don't show it
Promise me, that you will be
Strong enough for both of us
In the end, I'll come home safely, safely

Here I am, finally
Laying out my history
My heart aches
As my soul bleeds
Hoping they'll have a cure for me
With their buzzing machines
They screech and they scream
Working harder and faster, now
Unraveling the seams
I know what this means
This uncertainty is tearing me apart
At the seams, yeah

And I saved it, I made it
And everything we knew and loved
Will come back together
Promise me that you will be
Where I left you waiting
I'll come home safely

And all along
For you I had
In my pocket
A ring
