LYRICS:
We all live with a light
That we know one day goes dark
Some glow long, others short
But we all leave a mark
Take your light, spread it round
For this light’s where joy is found
If you hold onto your spark
You will find life in the dark
Then you will live, until you die
Walking the path you long to live by
Choose to live life with all of your heart
As you map the course that you want to chart
And if a storm throws you off keel
I’ll be the one to help right the wheel
Someone is here standing by
To help you live until you die
In a world, moving fast
Love can make these memories last
Take my hand, take my heart
I will hold them ‘til we part
As the sun slips away
Take a snapshot of this day
All of our days turn to night
But our love lives on as light
‘Cause we all live after we’re gone
Knowing our spirit always lives on
It’s in the books we leave behind
Or in someone’s heart and mind
You are a story meant to be told
And we will share your light with the world
We’re always here, right by your side
To help you live on beyond your goodbye
As we live, live until we die.
