May I Speak of Love – v2

With my final breath
from my spirit, my heart
may I speak of love
may you be beside me
hearing my longing
my prayer, my whisper,
never to depart

May you be beside me
come what may, what might
may our love grow stronger
even in that night

With my last breath
may I breathe, from my spirit,
-               I love you,
may these words grow stronger
even in that night
facing that tomorrow
knowing it is bright
