Before I pluck your wings, cover me Please spread your wings, cover me and
Promise this if I die before I wake up Promise this, take the time to say your grace On your knees you'll pray for me Promise this, be the last to kiss my lips

Promise this if I die before I wake up Promise this, take the time to say your grace On your knees you'll pray for me Promise this, be the last to kiss my lips
By a thread we're hanging on And I hope you don't let go If you ever leave me Know I wanna go with you
Promise this if I die before I wake up Promise this, take the time to say your grace On your knees you'll pray for me Promise this, be the last to kiss my lips
