Before

She asked
Why are you still here
You could see th tears that lined her eyes
Her grief was deep
She didn't think you could reply

It's all to hear the birds
It's all to see the sun
It's all to taste the rain
You don't remember where we came from

You didn't sleep that night
Neither did she
The memories too fresh for once to ever put away
And angels stood beside

It's all to hear a song
It's all to see a dance
It's all to smell the sea
You don't remember what we used to be

I remember
What we used to be
That's why I'm still here

She asked how you could stay
She didn't think you could reply
But you did

It's all to hear the birds
It's all to see the sun
It's all to taste the rain
You don't remember where we came from
It's all to hear a song
It's all to see a dance
It's all to smell the sea
You don't remember what we used to be
It's all to feel warmth
To understand
To love
To learn
It's all to teach
To know
To wait
It's all to see the things I never saw
You don't remember what it was like
Before
