I held the book so tightly in my hands,
I saw your picture, heard you call my name
(similar)
You gave me no warning
You gave no reason
But I was with you
Right by your side
Just give me the strength, and I will help you
And they can try their hardest, cos they don't frighten me
It's written in the book
It's hotter than I've known before,
but wait a minute, I don't understand
It's getting stronger, so grab my hand
(similar)
Can't you see me? I'm slipping away
I can only stay if you've the will to keep me here, oh lord
