On death and dying, my old friend Oh I heard a word from your chest Come out from within Take me as I come now Take me as I will Take me as an angel My freedom is mine but I'll share
And they said: On death and dying, my old friend Oh I heard a word from your chest Come out from within Any way you want me Any way at all Any way you need me, my angel Oh come just call
And won't you say a prayer for Won't you say a prayer for me, my friend I'm not dead, but I'm dyin' So slow, so slow, so slow
Won't you say a prayer for Won't you say a prayer for me, amen I've been cryin' like a siren In the mirror So cold, so cold, so cold, so cold
Any way you want me Any way you want me Any way at all Any way you need me Any way you need me And they come, they call
Take me as I come now Take me as I come now Take me as I will Take me as an angel Take me as an angel Take me as you feel
In the earliest of mornings A phrase will commonly make itself my way Gently, like a leaf on top of water, harming no one And that morning when I opened my eyes, it said accept death And then it melted away When I opened them again, it said expect death

And death she said, always seemed to me as one who got caught In god's riptide Quickly, and without realizing you are being pulled out to sea The laughter from the beach begins to grow faint As you sink further into it's abyss And soon there's no one around you And all that surrounds you is blue
Dear God reach down your hand and lift me up Amen
Won't you say a prayer for Won't you say a prayer for me, my friend I'm not dead, but I'm dyin' So slow, so slow, so slow Won't you say a prayer for Won't you say a prayer for me, amen I've been cryin' like a siren In the mirror So cold, so cold, so cold, so coldTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
