Where did we come from?
|
Why are we here?
|
Where do we go when we die?
|
What lies beyond
|
And what lay before?
|
Is anything certain in life?
|
|
They say " Life is too short"
|
"The here and the now"
|
And " You`re only given one shot"
|
But could there be more
|
Have I lived before
|
Or could this be all that we`ve got?
|
|
If I die tomorrow
|
I`d be alright
|
Because I believe
|
That after we`re gone
|
The spirit carries on
|
|
I used to be frightened of dying
|
I used to think death was the end
|
But that was before
|
I`m not scared anymore
|
I know that my soul will transcend
|
|
I may never find all the answers
|
I may never understand why
|
I may never prove
|
What I know to be true
|
But I know that I still have to try
|
|
If I die tomorrow
|
I`d be alright
|
Because I believe
|
That after we`re gone
|
The spirit carries on
|
|
[V:]
|
"Move on, be brave
|
Don`t weep at my grave
|
Because I`m no longer here
|
But please never let
|
Your memories of me disappear"
|
|
[N:]
|
Safe in the light that surrounds me
|
Free of the fear and the pain
|
My questioning mind
|
Has help me to find
|
The meaning in my life again
|
Victoria`s real
|
I finally feel
|
At peace with the girl in my dreams
|
And now that I`m here
|
It`s perfectly clear
|
I found out what all of this means
|
|
If I die tomorrow
|
I`d be alright
|
Because I believe
|
That after we`re gone
|
The spirit carries on
|
