I died a death but stayed alive
In phantom's likeness I survive
Alive, yet dead, I walk alone
In rooms with walls as cold as stone
I lived a life and dreamed a dream
And loved the life you lived with me
Then in the whisper of a breath
You left, and then I died a death
Though dead I live, I cannot part
From love that lives within my heart
Within my sorrow I must strive
To keep my hope and faith alive
For all the love that I would give
I surely would prefer to live
To be content, not to survive
But feel my spirit come alive
You slowly took your final breath
'Twas me, my dear, who died a death
