Ready to leave this world behind, my

Time is almost here

Hold me in your heart and mind, I

Will always be near

.

Promise to me that you won’t cry, swear

You won’t shed a tear

A new life awaits in the sky where

I go without fear

.

Waiting for the cold touch of their hands

Silently I pray

Steal from me my final breath, and

Carry me away

.

Sat high up on this lonely ledge, I’m

Ready for the fall

Barely inches from the edge, I

Hear the angels call

.

Waiting for the cold touch of their hands

Silently I pray

Steal from me my final breath, and

Carry me away

.

I can hear the angels calling

Calling me to them

One more step and I’ll be falling

Falling down to join them

So they can carry me away

.

I’m waiting for the angels’ soft caress

So silently I pray

For them to steal my final breath

And carry me away

.

In their arms I’ll fly far away

Far beyond this realm

Free from my pain there I will stay

Safe from the tortures of this world

.

Waiting for the cold touch of their hands

Silently I pray

Steal from me my final breath, and

Carry me away

.
