This is our last chance...

This is our last chance, Give me your hands.  'Cause our world is spinning at the speed of light.  The night is fading, heart is racing.  Now just come and love me like we're gonna die.

"How Could I Know?"

How could I know I would have to leave you?
How could I know I would hurt you so?
You were the one the one I was born to love,
Oh
How could I ever know?
How could I ever know?

How can I say to go on without me?
How, when I know you still need me so?
How can I say not to dream about me?
How could I ever know?
How could I ever know?

Forgive me,
Can you forgive me,
And hold me in your heart?
And find some new way to love me,
Now that we're apart?

How could I know I would never hold you?
Never again in this world,
But oh, sure as you breathe,
I am there inside you.
How could I ever know?
How could I ever know?

(From the Musical The Secret Garden, a song from a lost mother to the husband and son she left behind.)
Lyrics by Marsha Norman, and Music by Lucy Simon

This made me cry.
Especially because I feel like I am leaving love.
I may sing this for my final show piece.
