[Verse 1]
I could never find the right way to tell you
Have you noticed I've been gone?
'Cause I left behind the home that you made me
But I will carry it along

[Chorus]
And it's a long way forward, so trust in me
I'll give them shelter, like you've done for me
And I know I'm not alone, you'll be watching over us
Until you're gone

[Bridge]

[Verse 2]
When I'm older, I'll be silent beside you
I know my words won't be enough
And they won't need to know our names or our faces
But they will carry on for us

[Chorus]
And it's a long way forward, so trust in me
I'll give them shelter, like you've done for me
And I know I'm not alone, you'll be watching over us
Until you're gone
[Bridge]

[Chorus]
And it's a long way forward, trust in me
I'll give them shelter, like you've done for me
And I know I'm not alone, you'll be watching over us
Until you're gone...

[Bridge/Outro]
