歌詞

Not a single word escapes your silent lips

Yet I feel the shadow where the spirit slips

How can I read the heart you try to hide?

A sudden wave of truth from deep inside

Weep for the sorrow of a stranger in the rain

Cry for a soul you’ll never see again

We do these things because we’re human after all

Answering the quiet, unseen inner call

Your smiling face is like a radiant spark

A brilliant star that cuts into the dark

But the tears that overflow and start to trace

The fading shadows on your lovely face

That beautiful sorrow is what stays with me

Locked inside my memory

Without a single phrase, you simply hold my hand

A quiet gesture that can heal the broken land

To love a soul like that, so simple and so true

Is the very blessing that I found in you

To cheer for a life you’ve never known before

To hope they find the key and open up the door

We do these things because we’re human after all

Standing by each other when the shadows fall

Your smiling face is like a radiant spark

A brilliant star that cuts into the dark

But the tears that overflow and start to trace

The fading shadows on your lovely face

That beautiful sorrow is what stays with me

Locked inside my memory

The morning sun is fresh and clean and bright

Spilling its silver through the waking light

Yet inside this chest, a gentle longing stays

For the quiet comfort of the passing days

I miss the faint light that flickered through the night

The soft, fragile glow before the world turned bright

Yeah, that tiny candle in the dark

Is where I leave my heart
