I found myself next to Death's door

I found myself next to Death's door
And yet I yearned to breathe again
I saw that death was waiting for
The day that we would meet again

A second chance! I strove to live
In every way that I had dreamed
With every breath I had to give
I sought to learn what life could mean

I dreamed of love like such a fool
A wife, a home, a kid or two
I forgot life is such a jewel
It's too bad it's too short for you

So I found myself at Death's door
And yet I yearned to breathe again
I Yearn for life and all it's for
But Death won't let me leave again
