Hold me now, 'cause I couldn't even if I tried
It's over now, I guess it really is my time
I don't want to go
But it's time I got to say goodbye
So hold me now
'Cause this will be our last time

I'm slowing down and I don't think that I can fight
I know somehow, you'll find a way to live your life
Remember just to live everyday like it's your last
And hold me now, 'cause I think it's time for me to pass

I don't want to die, I don't know why
This kind of fate was meant for me
You got to be strong, got to move on
It's not the way it was supposed to be
What do I say? It was never supposed to end up this way

What do I have to do?
Was supposed to grow old with you
But that ain't gonna happen, mmm
No that ain't gonna happen

Hold me now, 'cause the time I've got's runnin' out
No tears allowed, even though we've become without
I just wanna feel you're head layin' on my chest
So hold me now, as I take my last breath

I don't want to die, I don't know why
This kind of fate was meant for me
You got to be strong, got to move on
It's not how it was supposed to be
What do I say? It was never supposed to end up this way

What do I have to do?
Was supposed to grow old with you
But that ain't gonna happen, mmm
No that ain't gonna happen
