Before I Died

No need to say you're sorry

No need to feel ashamed

If I'm not the one you love

Don't feel you're to blame

I don't deny it hurts me

And this pain is hard to hide

But at least I lived a little while

Before I died

I lived long enough to know

The sweet thrill of your lips

I knew happiness

Right down to my finger tips

You'll always be a part of me

Though you can't be mine

At least I lived a little while

Before I died

Don't ask me to forget you

'Cause you mean too much to me

I couldn't even if I tried

Too many memories

My yesterday's were happy days

And each memory's locked inside

At least I lived a little while

Before I died

I lived long enough to know

The sweet thrill of your lips

I knew happiness

Right down to my finger tips

You'll always be a part of me

And though you can't be mine

At least I lived a little while

Before I died
