Even After We've Passed

Even After We've Passed

Something about you	
Resonates with me.		
It’s hard to describe it;	
I don’t have the words,	
But I know it exists.		
Though it sounds absurd,	
Everything about you		
Resonates with me.		
	
Being around you		
Illuminates me.		
It gives me a reason,		
Hope for tomorrow,		
For more than a season.	
Like love’s afterglow,	
Just staying around you	
Illuminates me.		

(Chorus)
Is there a religion, church or belief,	
That really, really, believes in forever?	
A forever where we could stay together?	
If there isn’t, then what’s the point of believing?	
If there isn’t, then what are we doing here? 

“Till death do us part”	
Is not enough time.		
When I gave you my heart,	
I meant for all time.		
I couldn’t just want you	
The rest of my life.		
Even after we’ve passed,	
You should be my wife.	

Repeat last verse and fade on chorus)

In the bible it says we will be like the angels of heaven, not married; and I guess kin will be brothers and sisters. I believe that love is so intense in heaven. There is something greater than our experience here. I remember God is the one who made us and he will not disappoint. Enjoyed your examination of til death do us part…
