Sometimes I tell you the way that I feel   I swear that I'm going crazy   Keep telling myself, it ain't that big a deal   It's better than pushing up daisies      I felt the arrow from death's fatal quiver   Come so close, it actually grazed me   I bled the blood and I've felt the cold shiver   God only knows how He saved me      There's two dates in time that they'll carve on your stone   And everyone knows what they mean, what's more important   Is the time that is known in that little dash there in between   That little dash there in between      Sometimes my heart is as true as a dove   Sometimes my heart it betrays me   So, I draw my sword for the fight for my love   But without a whisper she slays me      My mother died but somehow she keeps living   She'll never cease to amaze me   Now, dad turns his back on each day that he's given   Because he'd rather be pushing up daisies      There's two dates in time that they'll carve on your stone   And everyone knows what they mean, what's more important   Is the time that is known in that little dash there in between   Yeah, that little dash there in between   There in between
