You're as faithful as a shadow and as graceful as the wind And I want you to know that while I know I don't deserve you We both know I'd never hurt you And my only fear is I'll persevere the bitter end I don't want to live, don't want to pretend As my only love nears the bitter end You are lovelier now than you've ever been before And I want you to know that while you are far from perfect There's not a single thing I'd correct And it's your tiny flaws that will bring me pause Before the bitter end I don't want to live, don't want to pretend As my only love nears the bitter end The bitter end, the bitter end, the bitter end I don't want to live, don't want to pretend As my only love nears the bitter end
