I had never seen a strait face on you,
Never had I seen you hands folded,
Tux Nice and clean,
You, unmoving and sleep like.

I hadn't told you everything,
and now it's too late,
Never will you laugh with me again,
you, unmoving and sleep like.

I hadn't ever hurt you,
you meant everything to me,
but seeing you like this,
unmoving and sleep like.

breaks my heart to see.
