Holly Heron - Before

Dance with me,
Take my hand,
Draw me close to you,
Bring me joy,
Before you spurn,
Before the pain begins,
Sing to me,
Give me love,
Before you cut me down,
Before the blood begins to spin,
And before the spirit dies,
My soul drowned in bitter tears,
Walk with me,
Beneath the light,
Lay with me,
Before the fire,
Give yourself,
Before you leave,
Before I die,
For your love,
Will not dwell here,
Inside this broken cage,
So dance with me,
Lay with me,
Take my hand,
And sing to me,
For soon you'll turn away.
