I know what I must do and I am prepared
But please stay here so I'm not scared
No time to explain, no time for goodbyes
Only time for tears as I look into your eyes
Stay with me, my family

Hold my hand, touch my heart
I know that pretty soon
I'll be where you are
I'll face him strong
Just stay by my side
I want you there, when I die.

I have tried, to stay alive
But now I must, sacrifice
I won't back down, yes I'll stand tall
And hopefully, I won't feel it at all
Stay with me, my family,

Hold my hand, touch my heart
I know that pretty soon
I'll be where you are
I'll face him strong
Just stay by my side
I want you there, when I die.

The smell of the forest surrounds me,
The smell of her red hair grounds me,
The sound of your voices protect me from harm
I know that you'll be here
Until the end
And I can't wait
To see you again

Hold my hand, touch my heart
I know that pretty soon
I'll be where you are
I'll face him strong
Just stay by my side
I want you there, when I die.
