The dead keep their lives Inside our memories Or so they say But I'm not convinced That's not enough for me On that terrible night Caught between the hope of his call And the dread of his fall The doorbell rang and not the phone Since then I'm all alone Morning brings a new day Last night he passed away Daylight shines outside My loss, I cannot hide They say life goes on A part of me died along with my son Who will comfort me now Each day brings less hope to me There's nothing left but the past Who will comfort me now Each day brings less hope to me There's nothing left but the past Will we meet again at last When I die The dead keep their lives Inside our memories Or so they say But I'm not convinced That's not enough for me
