Lyrics

When like some ember I gradually fade out and die Who's going to stand there and cry? Which one of my friends Wiill know where the book ends Will know how to tell me goodbye? If like some daydream I drift through interminable sky Would it have been worth all the pain? Yes, sure, would and again Just like a shadow We leave such a mark and no more Life will go on as before You've broken your heart And you've played out your part And your story don't go on anymore If like some whisper That falls with the winter's first snow We're here for a moment or so Then as dust, we go If we are numbered Like some treeless leaf on the breeze Sure, we are easily pleased We hang on to existence Just to cover the distance Until we are brought to our knees If one drop of rain Leaves more of a stain than I Should I just curl up and die? No, no, no, not I When I am called to Whatever is calling me home Is there a thing I have known? How long have I lost If I counted the cost Could I say I have possibly grown? What take I with me? Nothing but this: For once in a momentary kiss I found your love, alone
