Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Did you lose your way? Were you down on your luck?
Was your last nerve spent before you closed the door?
One big mistake, I guess that I will never know
Fell on black days, now you're gone forevermore
[PreChorus]
Beyond the ache
The here and now
One last refrain
Is ringing out
[Chorus]
It carries on, know your song will never die
Like an offering of love, a sacred rite
You'll carry on, a million hearts will beat in time
To an aching melody that will survive
An eternal lullaby
[Verse 2]
I can't pretend what you did didn't hurt
No, I can't pretend it doesn't break my heart
Your true intent, in the end, we'll never know
But we piece together what was torn apart
[PreChorus]
What's done is done
So let it be
Let solace come
Through a melody
[Chorus]
It carries on, so your song will never die
Like an offering of love, a sacred rite
You'll carry on, a million hearts will beat in time
To an aching melody that will survive
[Bridge]
And here we are, torn apart
They say that time can mend a broken heart
My shooting star, you left your mark
But the question still remains
Tell me why you chose to leave us in the dark
[Chorus]
It carries on, so your song will never die
Like an offering of love, a sacred rite
You'll carry on, a million hearts will beat in time
To an aching melody that will survive
[PostChorus]
An eternal lullaby
An eternal lullaby
An eternal lullaby
An eternal lullaby
[Outro]
Did you lose your way? Were you down on your luck?
Was your last nerve spent before you closed the door?
