Fragile

I remember her

Dark flowing hair

Eyes like deep blue waters

And her skin so fair

I remember her

How she used to sing

Melodies so full of sorrow

Dreams in the making

She was so fragile

Lying on my arms, not breathing

I can still hear the echo of her voice

And now as I hear them coming

I take her to our last dance

I remember her

Delicate beauty

Her eyes so wise and knowing

When she looked at me

She was so fragile

Lying on my arms, not breathing

I can still hear the echo of her voice

And now as I hear them coming

I take her to our last dance

The red haze fading

My vision regaining

And on my arms I see her lifeless body

Realizing what I've done

Anguish grips my heart

I close her eyes for the last time and she'll sing no more

She was so fragile

Lying on my arms, not breathing

I can still hear the echo of her voice

And now as I hear them coming

I take her to our last dance
