I want to be with you, Jo...

The first time I caught sight,

of that golden-golden hair,

of those dark mysterious eyes,

and lips the colour of cherry.

My heart did a back-flip,

it almost tore its way out,

to reach you,

my sweet Jo.

I was bad ass,

I wasn’t the type,

yet like cheesy poetic fools,

you became my inspiration.

Chorus:

I hate seeing all that blood

staining your beautiful skin,

and to see you gasp for air,

as life is flying away from you.

Though I kiss you goodbye,

though I am holding your hand for the last time,

it doesn’t cover, 

what I want to say forever.

I swear I want to cry,

but I am too much of an idiot,

to come up to you when you are dying,

to look into your eyes with tears and emotions,

to say that I love you.

—-

We worked together from time to time,

and we showed those evil sons of bitches what we were made of,

and, always, I would notice the sweet smile,

that lit up your face, and my life.

Oh god Jo…

how many times I wished,

that this stupid behaviour of mine would take a back seat,

that you would smile as I smiled,

and for eternity we would remain that way…

(Chorus)

I wish I cherished every moment,

every second that I was with you.

But both of us thought time was on our side,

and we din’t give a damn,

and we waited for the war to be over.

Now I sit here beside you,

after hell hounds tore you apart

And as The Devil catches up,

I wish life was never like this,

I wish I could die with you…

I shudder seeing all that blood

staining your beautiful skin,

and I hate to see you gasp for air,

as life is flying away from you.

Though I kiss you goodbye,

though I am holding your hand for the last time,

it doesn’t cover, 

what I want to say forever.

I swear I want to cry,

but I am too much of an idiot,

to come up to you when you are dying,

to look into your eyes with tears and emotions,

to say that I love you.

As I run away from you,

all the bombs defuse, 

and fire and explosions 

is all I see.

I stop and take a good look.

Then I wish again and again.

I wish I was dead.

I wish I could be with you.

I wish I was dying with you.

I wish we could be together…forever.
