Death Bed

[Verse 1]

Sometimes I'm so afraid that one day I will lie awake

In this bed we’ve made and you’ll be just a memory

The cancer took all your breath away from me

What I’d miss the most is laughing at your awful jokes

And the certainty that you would never hurt me

But life’s not fair and we only get so much time

[Chorus]

The bell is tolling, it’s softly pulling all of us to sleep

The loved ones we lose will stay with you

In your heart and in your dreams

The physical is just a means

[Verse 2]

What I’d do in this world without you

Is climb the highest mountain so we could be together again

I’d starve and I’d freeze to death

Under star dust of your eyes

[Chorus]

The bell is tolling, it’s softly pulling all of us to sleep

The loved ones we lose will stay with you

In your heart and in your dreams

The physical is just a means

[Verse 3]

Everyone I’ve ever loved will fade away into the sun

Everything that I am now will rust away

Do not fear the fading light, eternally this is what’s right

Maybe what you thought was God was really just the love that you had for the ones who you can’t live without

[Chorus]

The bell is tolling, it’s softly pulling all of us to sleep

The loved ones we lose will stay with you

In your heart and in your dreams

The physical is just a means
