I want to be still
   I want to walk into your grave
   where I can shelter in peace
   until all our cares have blown away
  
   let the whole world fall away
   and fall into my arms
   stay with me
   I don't know how long we've got left
   and so I'm asking you
   to forgive me
  
   I learn as I go
   to float far away
   into silence
   and just watch your face
   and find some kind of grace
   in that quiet bliss
  
   can I stay and say nothing at all, at all
  
   where will we go when we get old
   when the bustle and the noise
   get too frightning
   when each and every angry word
   is banished to the past
   that when I think
  
   we'll learn as we go
   to float far away
   into silence
   and I'll watch your face
   and read of patience and grace
   in each line there
  
   work each day
   all for nothing at all, at all
   and the few words I say
   they mean nothing at all at all
  
   will you walk into the grave with me
   will you leave this empty world
   soft and wistfull
   to sink into the dark, dark earth
   and never reappear would be blissful
  
   to float far away
   into eternal space
   and God's silence
   where I'll watch your face
   and find patience and grace
   in each line there
  
   drift away into nothing at all at all
   find the grace to be nothing at all at all
   fade away and end up nothing at all
   at all at all at all
