LYRICS:
Please take a breath for me again
Show the world this wake should end
Oh God, you must be mistaken
The walls of heaven are shaken
Don't let them cry
Let angels fly
Please don't close your eyes
'Cos I can't say goodbye to you
Eternal life seems so far away
But I promise you I'll try
Like a mother to her son
I'll nurse the wounds that struck you down
Just lift up your head
Come on, get up off the bed
Show me a sign that you're still alive
Please don't close your eyes
'Cos I can't say goodbye to you
Eternal life seems so far away
But I promise you I'll try
I believe you're here in my heart
Here in my heart
Good souls can't go too far away
Please don't close your eyes...
Eternal life seems so far away
But I believe you're here in my heart
(c) THE HINT
Please take a breath for me again
Show the world this wake should end
Oh God, you must be mistaken
The walls of heaven are shaken
Don't let them cry
Let angels fly
Please don't close your eyes
'Cos I can't say goodbye to you
Eternal life seems so far away
But I promise you I'll try
Like a mother to her son
I'll nurse the wounds that struck you down
Just lift up your head
Come on, get up off the bed
Show me a sign that you're still alive
Please don't close your eyes
'Cos I can't say goodbye to you
Eternal life seems so far away
But I promise you I'll try
I believe you're here in my heart
Here in my heart
Good souls can't go too far away
Please don't close your eyes...
Eternal life seems so far away
But I believe you're here in my heart
