Nurses Rushing to Your Side (2005)

Nurses rushing to your side
Not noticing me, just passing me by
When I heard a long beep
I was hoping it was all a dream, and I was asleep

Everything in time stopped, and all I saw was you
Lying there in bed
Not believing you were actually dead
But in the end, I realised it was true
It was all true… and I had lost you

Nothing can keep me away from you
You’re always here in my heart
Even when I’m crying all night because it was your time to die
Nothing can keep us apart

Everybody rushing to my side
Asking me “are you all right?”
I force a smile, and say “I’m fine”, trying to make my feelings subside
But every time, I realise I will never again see your smile shine bright
I know that I won’t ever be all right.

At your funeral I was the only one who didn’t leave your coffin’s side (for hours)
Leaving you roses every day
Trying to put my feelings aside
But I know, after that day, I’ll always be in a sense of disarray

Nothing can keep me away from you
You’re always here in my heart
Even when I’m crying all night because your time was due
Nothing can keep us apart

A year to the day
I’m still crying, every night
Thinking of what Cancer did to you

It just wasn’t right…
