Don't Die On Me Tonight

i used to rely on you, but then i saw

you, staring up from under sheets that

lie on top of hospital beds, but where is

your pulse? you want to pull that IV

right out of my arm, but why don't

you? why don't you stay?

don't die on me tonight <i>[x6]

if sorry was an honest statement

this lost cause won't hit the pavement

you believe its lost its gone, i believe in

hope, and carrying on and i'm

pacing back and forth for you,

when in emergency rooms, but don't say

a damn word cause, your eyes, they have

said enough, said enough

it's hard to operate, when your threats,

are just as empty as the other side of

your bed late at night, but where is

your heart tonight? you pray for second

chances, on second hand clocks, but why

don't you? why don't you stay?

don't die on me tonight <i>[x6]

if sorry was an honest statement

this lost cause won't hit the pavement

you believe its lost its gone, i believe in

hope, and carrying on and i'm

pacing back and forth for you,

when in emergency rooms, but don't say

a damn word cause, your eyes, they have

said enough, said enough

if sorry was an honest statement,

this lost cause won't hit the pavement,

i won't sit and watch you die, i've

paced to mirrors on the wall, i'm

staring back at my reflection, but i

don't say a word cause my eyes they

have said enough
