Heaven today is but a way   To a place I once called home   Heart of a child, one final sigh   As another love goes cold      Once my heart beat to the   Rhythm of the falling snow   Blackened below, the river now flows   A stream of molten virgin snow      For the heart I'll never have   For the child forever gone   The music flows because it longs   For the heart I once had      Living today without a way   To understand the weight of the world   Faded and torn, old and forlorn   My weak and hoping heart      For the child, for the light   For the heart I once had   I believe and foresee   Everything I could ever be      For the heart I'll never have   For the child forever gone   The music flows because it longs   For the heart I once had      Time will not heal a dead boy's scars   Time will kill      For the heart I'll never have   For the child forever gone   The music flows because it longs   For the heart I once had
