If I hold my breath Maybe it hurts less If I close my eyes I won't be so afraid If I could convince myself when this was all said and done That I could meet you there I wouldn't have to be so scared I could let go A final note decays A curtain lowers slowly A silence settles in A melody lives on The only thing that we can take with us Is every heart we left behind The only part of us that ever could live on was our song Sing on!! Our song!! Sing on!! Sing on!! The strange thing about time and oxygen We never pay the respect they deserve till they're almost gone The final note decays and the curtain lowers slowly And the song lives on
