Lyrics:

Verse 1

Lying on the couch with your head in my lap
Stroking your cheek as I lay my head back
Trying not to think about what the doctor said
Keeping myself busy by praying instead

Begging God to save you — one more time
Hoping that He knows that I need you in my life.
We've got a special love — we knew it from the start
Just the thought of losing you is breaking my heart.

Chorus A

If you leave me now, I don't know what I'll do
I can't imagine starting each day without you
If you leave me now, I think I'll fall apart
Already I can feel the aching in my heart
If you leave me now, I'll miss you every day
Until I see your face again at Heaven's gate

Verse 2

I'm trying to be strong, so you won't see my fear
It's taking all my strength to hold back the tears
Just the thought of losing you makes it hard to breath
I know I'm being selfish, but please don't leave.

As I lay beside you silently, I'm trying to believe
This nightmare that we're living, is really just a dream
I wish this night would never end - that tomorrow never comes
I don't want to face that day, if this is our last one.

Repeat Chorus A

Bridge

But if you really have to go,
you know I'll understand
No matter what happens,
you are in God's hands
And if you leave me now,
I'll miss you every day
But you'll be there to meet me
when I get to Heaven's gate.

Chorus B

If you leave me now, I'll miss you every day
Until I see your face again at Heaven's gate;
If you leave me now, I'll miss you every day
But you'll be there to meet me when I get to Heaven's gate
So I'll be looking for you when I get to Heaven's gate
Yes, I'll be looking for you when I get to Heaven's gate
