My hope for a miracle came true | M |
Though others have turned me down you said yes | N |

My heart can t bear this agony | F |
You sent me back to the prison of loneliness | F2 |
And I d rather die than live without you | M |
I ll never search for love again | G2 |
For I know tonight I ll breathe my last breath | G |
