lyrics

i had what everyone wants
a glimpse, one true word
and was not blind to it

but still i didn't know
that you can travel side by side
a great distance
hold him close for many years
his pulse so near
that it seems from your own no different
and that one day
on a day like any other
it stops

i've done the best i can with what's been given
i've seen with my own eyes a night sky
that could wreak you with it's beauty

felt the rhythmn of infinity
in the placement of the stars
i've gazed into favorite eyes
seen them close for the final time
all that we all know and hold onto
are our bridges of water
leading us to song

you can travel side by side
a great distance
hold him close for many years
his pulse so near
that it seems from your own no different
and then one day
on a day like any other.....
