I'M Staying Here

Another tear escapes your blue eye
Another time I beg you,
"Please don't die"

We walk the edge of night
And see the sunlit birds tear by

Someday
I'll see you smile
I'll hear your voice again
Somewhere
We'll go and you know
We're never looking in

I'll see you right here in my arms
This time not shaking with fear
I'll hold you to dance
Escape the tears
The memories we know will stay

But I'm not going anywhere

Someday
I'll see you smile
I'll hear your voice again
Somewhere
We'll go and you know
We're never looking in

Because 
You held me
You saved me
God knows I'll do the same for you
You touched me
You made me
Just know I'll be here 'till the very end

My little faerie
I'll hold you in my arms
Until the memories fade to a bitter dull
And we'll watch the sun set on this verdant world
