A single note passes
out of the ashes
A flickering ember begins
It's the courage to turn
when the pages have burned
And your story now
seems at an end
Seasons stay and seasons go
Sending your memories adrift
It's the beautiful longing
embrace the unknown
That's the mystery of your gift
And the echoes of your melody
will always live in these walls
And the lessons that
you gave to me
before you can fly you must fall
It's the beautiful longing
embrace the unknown
That's the mystery of your gift
There's a voice in the shadow
calling for more
There's a rhythm
that beats from within
Lending your voice
to the warmth of the song
There's a strength
in the choir of one
Pure as the voice
that sees the place
Where the weight of your past
may now lift
It's the beautiful longing
embrace the unknown
That's the mystery of your gift
And the echoes of your melody
will always live in these walls
And the lessons
that you gave to me
before you can fly you must fall
So sing higher and higher
a thousand new voices ring through
If you sing out of the fire
the courage you need
comes from you
And the echoes of your melody
will always live in these walls
And the lessons that
you gave to me
before you can fly you must fall
It's the beautiful longing
embrace the unknown
That's the mystery of your gift
It's the beautiful longing
embrace the unknown
That's the mystery of your gift
