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
Blending your voice to the warmth of your song,
there's a strength in the choir of one
Pure is 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
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
It's the beautiful longing,
embrace the unknown,
that's the mystery of your gift
