not in this life, but in the next

not in this life, but in the next

I've spent my life in love,

And love is all I am; if I cease to love,

I cease to be; I dream of love; I eat love,

Breathe love, bathe my tired heart in love, 

Pronounce love over and over and over again till

It sounds like a word from another language, 

A word I've lost the meaning for

How much do you think life really matters

To the creature I've become?

My only hope's that time will wear me out;

My flame will eat up all the air and die.

you've become as irreplaceable as the blood in my veins
