If came the hour if came the day
if came the year when you went away
how could I live I'd surely die
what would I be if you say goodbye
How would I laugh how could I love
could I believe in a God above
how would I hope how could I pray
if came the hour if came the day
But you are here lying beside me
I watch you breath each rise and fall
without you here then there would be
nothing at all
If in this world all things must 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 soul
how could I dance now you to hold
how could I hear the violin
there'd be no song I could ever sing
But you are here lying beside me
I watch you breath each rise and fall
without you here then there would be
nothing at all
Now you awake the dawn sweeps in
I touch your mouth I touch your skin
how would I live if you should go away
if came the hour if came the day
how could I live if you should go away
if came the hour if came the day
if came the hour if came the day
