If I lost you now, would I cry,

And hang my head forlorn and sad?

Would I greet each day in silence

And wipe each tear, each hopeless hope,

Wordlessly away until I slip into shadow?

If I lost you now, would I be sorry?

Would I slowly stumble on somehow?

Would I hide my eyes from this lonely life

If I lost you now?

Verse

Would the world go on regardless

And foreign runes of time pursued?

Love is his name and ever shall be

How could they know what I let go?

I'd beg the bitter end of days to swallow me whole.
