Intro :
Yesterda y I had a dre am about dy ing
About la ying to re st and then fly ing
How the mo ment at ha nd is the o nly thing we really o wn
And I la y in my be d and I wo ndered
After a ll has been sa id and is do ne for
Why is it thu s we are he re and so soon we are go ne?
Is th is life just a path to the place that we all have come fro m?
Does the he art know the way and if not can it ever be fo und?
In a smi le or a tear or a prayer or a sigh or a s ong?
And if so then I si ng for my fa ther
And in tru th you must kno w I would ra ther
He were he re by my si de; we could fly on the wings of a dre am
To a pla ce where the spi rit would fi nd us
And in jo y and surre nder would bi nd us
We are o ne anywa y anywa y we are more than we se em
There are tho se who will lead us protect us each step of the wa y
From begi nning to end for each moment forever each da y
Such a gi ft has been given it can never be taken aw ay
Though the bo dy in pa ssing must le ave us
There is o ne who rema ins to rece ive us
There are tho se in this li fe who are fri ends from our heavenly ho me
So I li sten to the vo ices insi de me
For I kno w they are the re just to gui de me
And my fa ith would procla im it is so we are never alo ne
From the li fe to the light from the dark of the night to the da wn
He is so in my heart he is here he could never be go ne
Though the si nger is silent there still is the truth of the so ng. . .i n th e so ng
Yesterda y I had a dre am about dy ing
About la ying to re st and then fly ing
How the mo ment at ha nd is the o nly thing we really o wn
And I la y in my be d and I wo ndered
After a ll has been sa id and is do ne for
Why is it thu s we are he re and so soon we are go ne?
Oh why is it thu s we are he re and so soon we are go ne?
