I held the flame as long as I could Through winds and storms, I thought I would But every fire learns to die Every dream meets the sky I spoke of love, I spoke of fear The words still ring, but no one hears A thousand hands I let slip through Now all that’s left is me and you If I could stay, I’d hold you tight But the road calls me into the night Don’t cry for me, just let it be The last light fades, but you are free
