Lyric

By the shore of a small and quiet lake

Once again, we stand for old time’s sake

We’ve weathered so many sorrows, hand in hand

But I never let go, across this lonely land

Why are the tears falling down your face?

Even as you try to leave this embrace

(Uu-)

If you’re trying to shield my heart from the sting

Please don’t—it doesn’t mean a thing

Watching your tears flow, never-ending and deep

That’s the only pain I cannot keep

Ah

Just be true to the feelings in your soul

Let your dreams take flight and make you whole

This isn’t the final page of our story

There’s no need for sadness, or to be sorry

As long as our hearts are woven and tied

I know we’ll meet again on the other side

It’s true, there are parts of us we don’t yet know

Seeds of a mystery that have yet to grow

The "Not Yet" half of our history

Something is waiting for you and me

Let’s save those secrets, let them be

Gifts for the next time we’re by the sea

(Uu-)

Evidence of my love for you

Ah

Evidence of my love for you!

Ah

Just be true to the feelings in your soul

Let your dreams take flight and make you whole

I’ll hold those beautiful tears in my heart

Even when the world pulls us apart

Your kindness, your grace, your noble light

I’ll embrace all of you, all through the night

This isn’t the end, it’s a promise to keep

The half that is "missing," while the world is asleep

Is a gift for the day when I see you again

Until I can hold you, beyond the "when."

It’s a promise, thank you for the light

I love you... into the night

Ah
