[Verse 1]
Cicada, won't you sing?
Come carry me under your wing
I want to hear the mercy of your song
Cicada, comfort me
It’s dark outside and I can't see
I want to feel the light under the earth
I watched the sun go low
The shadows crept up from below
You sang even as the world came down

[Chorus]
When I hear the sound
I know you're around
And when I’m alone
I hear a voice I know
Give me one more day
Let me hear you say
I'll remember you, my friend
Your song will never end

[Verse 2]
Cicada, stay up late
Tell me about the grace again
I want to see the stars shine from your eyes
Cicada, don't you know
That everyone sings the song you wrote?
You left too soon but you left us so much
We spend a lifetime waiting
For someone who makes it all make sense
Who sees us how we see ourselves
So say goodnight but not goodbye
I'll see you on the other side
I'll spend my life behind with you inside me
[Chorus]
When I hear the sound
I know you're around
And when I'm alone
I hear a voice I know
Give me one more day
Let me hear you say
I'll remember you, my friend
Your song will never end

[Bridge]
Sun don’t set, I won’t forget the things you left

[Chorus]
When I hear the sound
I know you're around
And when I’m alone
I hear a voice I know
Give me one more day
Let me hear you say
I'll remember you, my friend
Your song will never end
