You died while I was sleeping;

Sorry, I just needed to rest.

I sat by your bedside

Three days in a row at best.

I needed some dark hours

So I could keep on

Holding your hand.

But, you died while I was sleeping.

I guess I wasn't allowed to see you go.

But my heart will always know,

The better world in which you'll rise.

But, I still miss the nights I dried

The tears from your eyes.

I just regret my whole meaning

Because I wasn't able to say

"Goodbye,"

But, you died while I was sleeping.

The blackness of my guilty feeling

Will always from my heart be weeping,

Because you died while I was sleeping.
