Lyric

Drifting, drifting far away

Still we’ll keep on singing

Days soaked deep in sorrow’s rain—

Even they will speak of endings

All the sorrow we repeat

Fades into the tears we shed

Every time we share a smile

Joy and pain are both the same—

Echoes of a living soul

Joy and pain are both the same—

Echoes of a living soul

Endless wars will rise again

Lives so fragile disappear

Still we walk and still we breathe—

Every heart must bear its sins

Each of us will choose a path

Each of us a different way

Yet the life our mothers gave

Shines the same in everyone—

Equal in its silent glow

All the faults we carry now

Turn to memories and pass

If we share a smile again

Joy and pain will speak as one—

Echoes of a living soul

Drifting, drifting far away

Still we’ll keep on singing

Days once drowning in our grief

Whisper softly: “This will end.”
