Lyric

Somehow I held it in my arms

To shield it from the worldly harms

The fading heat of yesterday

I gave it to the world away

For no clear reason, out of blue

I questioned what I thought I knew

The solemn vow, the silent prayer

I threw into the midnight air

If chasing after what we choose

Means someone else is bound to lose

Then all I will believe from here

Is in your smile and falling tear

The overflowing crystal rain

That washes out our silent pain

I found myself just standing still

Upon that old, familiar hill

The scenery of days gone by

Was matching with the future sky

You nodded once and let me be

Forgiving all the flaws in me

The destiny our feelings traced

Inside my heart, it’s safely placed

If feeling everything we share

Can teach the world to truly care

Then I will love it all, I swear

The smile and tears you always wear

If chasing after what we choose

Means someone else is bound to lose

Then all I will believe from here

Is in your smile and falling tear

The smile and tears you always wear

That washes out our silent pain
