From the recording Humankind
Lyrics
Last Breath
I hope it’s you I’m remembering if I forget it all
And your name upon my lips be that last thing I recall
Your sweet voice lingering in my ear the day I go deaf
‘Cause you’re the one I’ll be loving dear the day I take my last breath
I hope your face is the last thing I see should I go blind
Your caress upon my cheek when I come to the end of my time
If true love is a miracle, I’ve been surely blessed
‘Cause you’re the one I’ll be loving dear the day I take my last breath
BRIDGE
They say that love is a curious thing, rarer than the bluest moon
If I should love you forever and a day, it would end a day too soon
I’m not afraid to leave this world when my days are through
‘Cause I saw what heaven is like, you know I saw on the day I met you Memories are all I need, you can have the rest
‘Cause you’re the one I’ll be loving dear the day I take my last breath ‘Cause you’re the one I’ll be loving dear the day I take my last breath
