My God have mercy upon me
in this Hour of Death
I pray for thee to take my life
instead of the one I so dearly love
Her face is pale like the ivory
of the distant realms
And as I hold her hand in mine,
I clearly feel it's turning cold
Like marble or snow

Remembering the days of joy, not so long ago
Those memories just increase grief
as I watch the withering of beauty
How can it be that tomorrow
she's not here and I remain
There has to be some kind of way
we can be together again
Together again

As she fades away
Like statue made of clay

All I wish is to be in grave with her
Slowly transforming back into dirt
Deep under the sacred ground
Noone will be able to part us now
