David J. Caron - Final Bell Lyrics

My last rites have been read, I've made my last request
Without what I've asked for, at peace I will not rest
They're opening my door now, it's time to face my fate
But always there's hope inside me, even as I walk the through the gate
I walk my final steps, but still no-one has said
Why my final wish is still just a longing in my head
I could have asked for anything and have my wish come true
But the only thing I'd ask for is one moment more with you

I need to see you looking at me, one last time staring at me
Into my eyes deep so I can see, right through to the place that you keep
Those secret feelings you keep, locked inside hidden from me
To really know that in your heart I beat, the way your eyes say you feel for me

The way your eyes say you feel for me
'Cause your eyes are confusing me

Instead, the sack's placed on my head
The levers hang on contact edge and the bulbs are glowing red
My lungs fill their last breath, I'm almost out of time
My life is hanging by a thread and still of you there is no sign
Then like a miracle, suddenly I hear
Your voice at last approaching, and I can believe my ears
I hear you looking at me, and you wrap your hands around
Each and every lever but do you pull them up or down?

I need to see you looking at me, one last time staring at me
Into my eyes deep so I can see, right through to the place that you keep
Those secret feelings you keep, locked inside hidden from me
To really know that in your heart I beat, the way your eyes say you feel for me

I need to see you looking at me, one last time staring at me
Into my eyes deep so I can see, right through to the place that you keep
Those secret feelings you keep, locked inside hidden from me
To really know that in your heart I beat, the way your eyes say you feel for me

The way your eyes say you feel for me
'Cos your eyes are confusing me

So what do I have to do, to see deep into you
Wait 'til my last moment, to be un-confused by you

Wait to my final bell? Wait to my final bell
