Hold my hand, keep on holding tight
Before you slip away into the afterlife.
Stay with me, stay another night
Its been 60 years since we pledged our lives.
Fragile hands and a tender face
You gave many hours to help the human race.
Softly you would pray your prayers
Drawing close to God, he will lead you there
Where rocketships and fireflies
Flicker in the evening sky
Where dreamers lay and say goodnight
Where lovers kiss their last goodbye
Thats the story of our lives
As we sit upon that hill
Where life and death fight for their fill
The book you wrote in breath and blood
Shows the pages of a life of love
Where rocketships and fireflies
Flicker in the evening sky
Where dreamers lay and say goodnight
Where lovers kiss their last goodbye
Thats the story of our lives
When you make that great escape
Seeing Jesus there at Heaven's gate
Oh, my love, I can hardly wait
Just to run with you through the landscape
Where rocketships and fireflies
Flicker in the evening sky
Where dreamers lay and say goodnight
Where lovers kiss their last goodbye
Thats the story of our lives.(3X)
