Just Seconds

Put your arms around me
Make this place the most secure
Take my last breath and breathe it
Place my soul into your soul

Who speaks when my heart is speaking?
Who talks while I talk?
Who bleeds when my life is bleeding?
Warm me I’m so cold
Teach my body to keep up
Please try to wake my heart
I feel so lonely now
Maybe its time to give up

Hold my hand for this moment
I’m so scared to move on
Look my light while it’s fading
There’s not time now my love

All I feel is the kiss you gave me
Your tear drop on my lips
Don’t cry, please be strong my baby
It’s your look I will miss

Only seconds after a car accident, she holds him in her arms.
