One Day Less

Oh, love of mine
Look what you've done
You've taken the pieces of me
And you've fixed them up

Oh, love of mine
Look what we've become
Two wandering souls that somehow
Turned into one

Till death do us part
I'll be right where you are

When we finally get to the end of our lives
I'll leave just before you, so I won't have to cry
Before your last breath
I'll go up ahead

I'll be waiting for you, hold your place in the line
As we walk through the gates down the streets painted white
However long you live
I hope I exist one day less

Your tenderness
Is all that I know
What would I do without you
To have and to hold?

You're heaven-sent
And I hope you know
That when you go back to the sky
I'll welcome you home

Till death do us part
I'll be right where you are

When we finally get to the end of our lives
I'll leave just before you, so I won't have to cry
Before your last breath
I'll go up ahead

I'll be waiting for you, hold your place in the line
As we walk through the gates down the streets painted white
However long you live
I hope I exist one day less

When we finally get to the end of our lives
I'll leave just before you, so I don't have to cry
However long you live
I hope I exist one day less
