If came the hour, if came the day, If came the when you went away How could I live, I'd surely die What would life be if you said 'goodbye' ? How would I laugh, how could I love, I believe in a God above? How would I hope, how could I pray, If came the hour, if came the day? But are here, lying beside me, I watch you breathe, each rise and fall, Without you near there would be, at all. If, in this world, all things pass, And we must raise the parting glass, No words would ever come what could I say, If came the hour, if came the day? There'd be no music in my How could I dance - not you to hold? How could I hear violin? There'd be no song I could ever sing. But you are here, lying beside me, I watch you breathe, each rise and fall, Without you near would be, Nothing at all. Now you awake, the dawn sweeps in, I touch your mouth, touch your skin, How would I live, if you should go away, If came the hour, if came the day? How would I live, if you should go away, If the hour, if came the day... If came the hour, if came the day?
