The clock struck two

It was the last night

He got up from his bed

As she switched on the light

Cancer making a hole in his 80 years of life

This would be the last dance with his beloved wife

Removing all his drips

He didn’t care but to dance

Strength was bestowed upon him

This was the last chance

They came near and started the ball

Music was playing in the air 

They seemed to be feeling all

Memories of the forgotten times making way to their heart

Waltz was so special to them

Their story it did start

Lost in each other, they danced till dawn

The old man knew in his heart that soon he would be gone

His wife carrying a heavy load tried not to cry

It was the last hour, it was time to say good bye

She broke into tears, her eyes became red

The old man hugged her tight and he said:

Remember you are a star for me

And for others you'll always be

One two three he died in her arms

The last feeling of love

The last of all charms

The clock struck five, she could feel the sun

It was the end of the unforgettable waltz

A new life for her had begun.
