Border of roses and rose leaves.

And You Are Here

Lyrics & Music: Maureen S. O'Brien, 5/26/96
Insp: Babylon 5, "War Without End" (Part 2) by J. Michael Straczynski

I have dreamed of your lips for so long.
Now, the first time
That your lips meet mine,
It's the end of the line.
Hair of grey, pain and grime...
And you're beautiful. And I love you even more.
And I never ever knew all that you could be before...
It's not long before he kills us.
I'm confused and full of fear.

But we all die,
And don't know why,
And you are here.

And you tell me our son David's safe --
And some corner of my heart
That I never knew was dark
Feels a warmth, sees a spark
Like a sunrise at its start...
And my heart is full...of a child I'll never see.
It's a miracle I'd've sworn could never be...
It's not long before he kills us.
I was not meant to be here.

But we all die,
And don't know why,
And you are here.
