When you came to see me In that hospital bed, They had pulled out the plug, And they had left me for dead, I had started on a journey Down that tunnel of light, One look in your eyes – And everything was alright, When you came to see me In that hospital bed
Aaa-aa-aaa-aa-aaa-aa (x 2)
And now we’ve got a little time Before that trumpet sounds, And the earth rises up To swallow me down, Will you stay here now At the end of my days? Will you give me your heart Until that sad waltz plays? Will you stay beside me In that hospital bed?
Aaa-aa-aaa-aa-aaa-aa (x 2)
So draw the curtains, Look out for the nurse, You said you loved me Through better and through worse, For richer, for poor, In sickness and in health, You have held onto my hand, Though it’s a bad hand I’ve been dealt, Will you stay beside me In that hospital bed? Will you stay beside me In that hospital bed?
