One Day Less

Oh, love of mine

Look what you've done

You've taken the pieces of me

And you've fixed them up

Oh, love of mine

Look what we've become

Two wandering souls that somehow

Turned into one

Till death do us part

I'll be right where you are

When we finally get to the end of our lives

I'll leave just before you, so I won't have to cry

Before your last breath

I'll go up ahead

I'll be waiting for you, hold your place in the line

As we walk through the gates down the streets painted white

However long you live

I hope I exist one day less

Your tenderness

Is all that I know

What would I do without you

To have and to hold?

You're heaven-sent

And I hope you know

That when you go back to the sky

I'll welcome you home

Till death do us part

I'll be right where you are

When we finally get to the end of our lives

I'll leave just before you, so I won't have to cry

Before your last breath

I'll go up ahead

I'll be waiting for you, hold your place in the line

As we walk through the gates down the streets painted white

However long you live

I hope I exist one day less

When we finally get to the end of our lives

I'll leave just before you, so I don't have to cry

However long you live

I hope I exist one day less
