Yes, I Worry

The unknown silence that passed me by

A moment to grab at you, has now gone by

Was it my last hope, my last chance to live?

Will you be my taker, or will you give?

As I lie here, missing her

I can't help but worry

Will I be your cure?

Can I help you, when the light fades away?

Will I be there, when it is your final day?



I don't know, no I don't know

And this, it worries me so

I'd kill to give you flowers

Right before you close your eyes

If it meant another day, of me with you

I'd buy a million flowers in place of a million minutes without you



Hold me now, as I fade away

I am slipping slowly, there goes the day

Every hour that passes you by

I cannot stand to be here, and never hear you cry



Let me cry there with you, that is what I want to do

Do not worry dear, I will always be near

When you need me, call me on my phone

Give me a definate future, one where I am not alone



I fear the days, each one is passing by

I fear the hours, they are less now till you die

I fear the minutes, they tick our time slowly away

I fear the seconds, each one was perfect when I had you



Yes, I still worry, this I must confess

Yes, I still get scared at night

Where will this take me?

Yes, I still worry, but I must pass the test

Yes, I still cry sometimes

Why won't you stay with me tonight?

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I am afraid of my future, and my obligations I must meet, my family, my friends, my life...and you.  I worry about how this will end up and if it will end up in my favor or not...I hate the unknown.
