Take Me
'Twas late one night
And you went out
To take an evening walk
But I stayed home
To rest my soul
After a long day at work
I said I'd come
But you said stay
You wouldn't be that long
We kissed Goodbye
I don't know why but I thought I was gonna cry
CHORUS:
I don't want to live anymore
If I can't have you
'Cause I can't face this world alone
After all we've been through
God are you listening to my prayer?
Why did you have to take my world?
Why couldn't I have been there?
I would give my soul, I'd give my life
Why couldn't you take me?
The telephone rang
I thought it was you
But before I picked it up I knew
A stranger spoke
He said come quick
I asked him why, he said that you might die
I dropped to my knees and began to cry
CHORUS
I rushed to see you
To face my fear
I thought could this be real
You were lying there as beautiful as ever
I walked over and kissed your cheek
Then you slowly turned your head
And you started to speak
You told me:
"Do not worry, when I'm not here
Always remember, I am watching you from above
Take care of yourself I will always be here
Within your heart I remain.................I Love You"
CHORUS
I'm not asking for very much
I just want to see
God just tell me in your own way
Why couldn't you take me?
