I cannot dare to look 

At exactly what you took 

I give it time to breathe

And wipe its tears on my sleeve 



And it will break my heart 

With every sound it makes, 

on you 

And it's all over dear 

You squeeze my hand and I 

I know it's true 



His little hand round my thumb 

Makes me warm and numb 

I hold my breath and smile

and hope it stays for a while



And it will break my heart 

With every sound it makes, 

on you 

And it's all over dear 

You squeeze my hand and I 

I know it's true
