how much more?

how much more
suffering
may i teach,
my love?

how much more
misery
would you learn,
my love?

i concede as you decide
how our pain will coincide
please, don’t leave us here tonight

all the love that died inside
might have stopped a suicide
please, don’t let us say, “goodbye”

may i still
dream of you
when it's done,
my love?

would you sing
to my soul
like old times,
my love?

i concede as you decide
how our pain will coincide
please, don’t leave us here tonight

all the love that died inside
might have stopped a suicide
please, don’t let us say, “goodbye”

how much more
will you bear?
how much more
will i bear?
