i want to be still 
i want to walk into your grave 
where i can shelter in peace 
until all our cares have blown away

let the whole world fall away 
and fall into my arms 
stay with me 
i don‘t know how long we‘ve got left 
and so i‘m asking you 
to forgive me 

i learn as i go
to float far away
into silence 
and just watch your face
and find some kind of grace
in that quiet bliss 

can i stay and say nothing at all, at all 

where will we go when we get old 
when the bustle and the noise 
get too frightning 
when each and every angry word
is banished to the past 
that when i think 

we‘ll learn as we go
to float far away
into silence
and i‘ll watch your face
and read of patience and grace
in each line there 

work each day
all for nothing at all, at all 
and the few words i say
they mean nothing at all at all

will you walk into the grave with me 
will you leave this empty world 
soft and wistfull 
to sink into the dark, dark earth 
and never reappear would be blissful 

to float far away
into eternal space
and God‘s silence 
where i‘ll watch your face
and find patience and grace
in each line there 

drift away into nothing at all at all 
find the grace to be nothing at all at all 
fade away and end up nothing at all 
at all at all at all
