[bodytext] => You Keep Living for Me January 16, 2005 When I look into your eyes, I can see you pleading with your life... I wonder if you know, and why You have to feel the pain, alone Gone so far in your heart, devastated So close in my mine, love created On the white bed, white walls, white gowns passing through Your face falls sullen, was it all today? Every morning I come to see you Is a blur, one long day, and by the end You've gone from glowing to going And I worry that you know But I won't let go. I'll sit forever in this chair, in this room Holding your hand and reading aloud I'll do everything I can to keep you here You try so hard, I am so proud... Until I look into your eyes and see the suffering you do I know that you're not hanging on just for you... Am I selfish to want to keep you with me, Is it fair to keep you struggling? Your voice is growing faint in my memory, It's been so long since you spoke to me. If you could part your lips and speak, What would you have me do? Oh, in your eyes I see and know You would not have to...
