[Instrumental]
[Verse 1]
I could never find the right way to tell you,
...have you noticed I've been gone...?
'cause I left behind the home that you made me;
but I will carry it along.
[Chorus]
And it's a long way forward, so trust in me.
I'll give them shelter, like you've done for me!
And I know, I'm not alone - you'll be watching over us...
...until you're gone.
[Instrumental]
[Verse 2]
When I'm older, I'll be silent beside you.
I know words won't be enough.
And they won't need to know our names or our faces,
but they will carry on for us.
[Chorus]
And it's a long way forward, so trust in me.
I'll give them shelter, like you've done for me!
And I know, I'm not alone, you'll be watching over us...
...until you're gone
[Instrumental]
[Outro]
Oh it's a long way forward; trust in me.
I'll give them shelter, like you've done for me...
And I know, I'm not alone, you'll be watching over us...
...until, you're, gone.
