Wipe away tears that might fall on my face
So I won't look the fool and I want fall from grace
I'm heart-struck with terror, but I'll try to be brave
and call on my God that my soul might be saved
But it's so convoluted, so please give me you hand
I want it mine if I'm to understand
Because I don't know why, and I don't know how
But please tell me you love me and I'm okay for now
Drums will keep drumming and the world will go on
And lives will be lived after we are long gone
So I'll live for each moment, bring all I can bring
My requiem may be the only song I may sing
But I look in your face and I know that today
I will stay on this earth and I will not waste away
Because I don't know why, and I don't know how
But please tell me you love me and I'm okay for now
Nobody knows what tomorrow may bring
You can pity yourself, as for me I will sing
This life that I live is the only one that I got
I will do what I can so it won't be for naught
I will down my fences, my heart's on line
Reject it if you will and some day I'll be fine
But I don't know why, and I don't know how
But please tell me you love me and I'm okay for now
