There is an answer, some day we will know   And you will ask her, why she had to go   We live and die, we laugh and we cry   And you must take away the pain   Before you can begin to live again      So, let it start, my friend, let it start   Let the tears come rolling from your heart   And when you need a light in the lonely night   Carry me like a fire in your heart   Carry me like a fire in your heart      There is a river rolling to the sea   You will be with her for all eternity   But we that remain need you here again   So, hold her in your memory   And begin to make the shadows disappear      Yes, let it start, my friend, let it start   Let the love come rolling from your heart   And when you need a light in the lonely night   Carry me like a fire in your heart   Carry me like a fire in your heart      So, let it start, my friend, let it start   Let the love come rolling from your heart   And when you need a light in the lonely night   Carry me like a fire in your heart   Carry me like a fire in your heart      Carry me like a fire in your heart   Carry me like a fire in your heart
