Lyrics
You wined and dined me when we first met
those are days I?ll never forget.
Oblivious to other?s charms,
my paradise is in your arms.
We watched football matches, and went for long walks
sometimes we just sat by the fire and talked.
It doesn?t matter whatever we do
just as long as I?m with you.
The time we?ve spent together has flown
my love for you has grown and grown.
I can?t bear to see you in pain
I want to make you well again.
All the time we?ve been together,
I thought our love would last forever.
Oblivious to other?s charms,
my paradise is in your arms.
The illness eating away at you
is tearing my bleeding heart in two.
I try to be strong but you know me too well,
whatever I?m feeling you can always tell.
I know it won?t be too long now
when the one that I adore
will be taken from me
I?m not sure I can cope anymore.
All the time we?ve been together,
I thought our love would last forever.
Oblivious to other?s charms,
my paradise is in your arms.
We kissed passionately for one last time
you felt stronger than you had in quite a while.
I stroked your cheek, and then you smiled
you took one final breath .......... and then you died.
All the time we?ve been together,
I thought our love would last forever.
Oblivious to other?s charms,
my paradise is in your arms.
