Hope was closing with my eyes, down the shallow grave I was lying
Then I heard someone say you'll be stuck here forever, but I prayed it wasn't forever
'Cause you were leaning over me, clutching memories of when I was alive, and then you breathed life into me one last time.
But I prayed it wasn't the last time, because it would be so wonderful to see your starry eyes again.

[Chorus:]
Give me more than the things that I've lived for
I'm only echoes of the man that I'm supposed to be
Because I want more of the things I'd die for
I want to feel it in my soul

Now that you've unburied me
Dust me off and carry me home
And I beg you sing life to me again
I promise this won't happen again

Because it would be so wonderful to see your starry eyes again

[Chorus:]
