lyrics

Pray that you find me before they do.
You alone know I mean no harm.
Hold me again, like you used to do.
Remind me of when we were all calm.

No prize for coming last
and no golden star for me.

Over the hill is dead old tree,
meet me inside in an hour.
There we are still who we used to be,
before we became all the others.

Write me down a list of all the words that spring to mind.

Cry for a while and you break the spell,
now they all know where we're hiding.
Found out today that i am not well.
Found out today that i'm dying.

All my life I dreamed of you.
And now you will dream of me.
