Cast a number into the sea   Here's a billion more you can throw away   It disappeared or I lost it somewhere   A year ago in the month of May      The only promise that we made to each other was   We'd try to save   Ourselves from falling into the same fate   As everyone else but it died just the same      Chorus:   But all the lights still shine   And as the days go by   You've got to pick yourself up off the ground   And come back in from the outside   Reach out, reach out, there's somebody there   We're not supposed to be alone      It's fragile times as I gain in age   And we know less than we did as a child   It disappeared or I lost it somewhere   But it's been gone from me for a while      The only promise that we made to each other was   We'd try to save   Ourselves from falling into the same fate   As everyone else but we ended the same      Chorus:   All the lights still shine   And as the days go by   You've got to pick yourself up off the ground   And come back in from the outside   Reach out, reach out, there's somebody there   We're not supposed to be alone      Bridge:   Hope is always there within a shattered dream      Chorus:   All the lights still shine   And as the days go by   You've got to pick yourself up off the ground   And come back in from the outside   Reach out, reach out, there's somebody there   We're not supposed to be alone   We're not supposed to be alone
