Knowing

If I knew this was the last time I'd see
I would look into you're eyes
And happy I'd be

If I knew this was the last time we'd meet
I would sing you a song
Gentle and sweet

If I knew this would be my last day
I would lie next to you
And together we'd stay

If I knew I would not last the night
I wold remember the good times
And hold onto them tight

If I knew this would be my last breath
I would tell you 'I love you'
And not to regret

And if Knew i was going to die
I would hold your hand
And leave with a sigh
