How Close Is Death, How Close Is Love
Open your eyes
In a hospital gown
Stomach in stitches
And sore in the silence
And how does it feel?
The end of your story?
Can you still sing your praises
With angels that never cease?
Oh how close is love
Closer than the grip of death
And oh how deep is grace
Deeper than the grave you dig
And oh-oh
How close is death
And oh-oh
How close is love
Open your eyes
In the heat of a fire
Red in the embers
My bones turn to ash
And how does it feel
To finally be burning?
To know all the losses
Are counted in pain?
Oh how close is love
Closer than the grip of death
And oh how deep is grace
Deeper than the grave you dig
And oh-oh
How close is death
And oh-oh
How close is love
Love
In a hospital gown
Stomach in stitches
And sore in the silence
And how does it feel?
The end of your story?
Can you still sing your praises
With angels that never cease?
Oh how close is love
Closer than the grip of death
And oh how deep is grace
Deeper than the grave you dig
And oh-oh
How close is death
And oh-oh
How close is love
Open your eyes
In the heat of a fire
Red in the embers
My bones turn to ash
And how does it feel
To finally be burning?
To know all the losses
Are counted in pain?
Oh how close is love
Closer than the grip of death
And oh how deep is grace
Deeper than the grave you dig
And oh-oh
How close is death
And oh-oh
How close is love
Love
