lyrics

I place an iris on your heart,
As they lower you to sleep,
Next to your love,

And as you're covered up,
I thank you for the life,
You've given me,

I sat and held your hand,
I tried to show you what,
You mean to me,

I hold it once again,
A feeling once so warm,
Is now cold as stone,

I sat and held you close,
You told me you were ready,
And you were proud,
And that you loved me,

I dreamt the other night,
That nothing changed,
We talked as you sat in your chair,
But now I'm awake,
And I look at the chair,
I feel something I can't bear,

I place an iris on your heart,
As they lower you to sleep,
Next to your love.
