lyrics

In the shadows of the past
And in the spark behind the smile
And in the beating of his heart
Was the song that he wrote
Was the song that he wrote

And if numbers turn to nought
And if all life is but a dream
Then the song that he wrote
Could be all that remains
It could be all that remains

All his thoughts were lost in wonder
All the love that could have been ours
All the love was in the song that he wrote
In the song that he wrote
And the song shall remain
