So don’t let go of me now
Cause I’m dying in your arms tonight
Something so right can’t go wrong
So we really don’t think again
Your love has left me feeling like
I wanna die in your arms tonight

Dying In Your Arms Tonight.

We won't be missed

Once we're gone

So lets do it today

By tonight we'll fade

I'm feeling so blue

Nobody cares what I come to

Take this step with me

Baby, I know it'll set us free

Loving you shouldn't hurt so bad

It's slowly driven me mad

So tonight at the barn it'll be

Only when we're gone will they finally see

That our love was true

I was meant only for you

In hay blocks we lay

I get the feeling it'll be okay

As I take away your pain

And you take away mine again

You slide the knife across my wrist

Lean over and steal my breath with a kiss

Then cut your lifeline with the blade

Take me in your arms, together we fade

Your heartbeat fills my ear

We rest in peace, our end is near

Hand in hand we knock at deaths door

With wings we fly off the floor

Life's back on track, all went with plan

I couldn't have died in the arms of a better man

Nicely written. This has a rather mix of emotions, Kinda sad, but full of love.

This is tragic, star-crossed lovers; always a great plot line. It reads a bit like a song. I love reading the work of young writers, there's a lot of potential here.

ooh you know if you die in hay the hay keeps your body warm and your finders are in hopes that you are still alive .. still I guess your lovers would have blood everywhere giving a slight clue all is not well

Simple yet stunning!
I love the romance of this, the newest comparioson is a serious Katniss and Peeta but yeah, I would call this better than Hungergames.
