The Light of the World (The Days You Used to Live)
Dedicated to Someone and Everyone
I never met you
But I know your name and age.
I saw you
In Springtime
You didn't have to
Count your days.
You loved him,
You loved her,
It was a sweet romance.
Then life took,
The joy of the world
Away from you.
You realized far too early
That the world is cruel and terrible
You know that the we are human
And humans they make mistakes.
But who said that innocence isn't bliss
It's the love of all the world.
In Springtime,
In Summer,
The days you used to live.
You grew up,
You loved and forgave
The world again
For their lies, and their old
Clichés.
Saying that love is always new
But love isn't really a complicated.
It's simple and enduring that's what makes
It so enduring.
I remember
The day when
You died and left me here.
You said that the world forsook you
That no one had seemed to care.
That you were alone and afraid
Every day.
That your dreams were all but nothing.
I still dream of you
Do you still dream of me?
We can dream together
The light has shown in darkness
But darkness has not seen it.
I never met you
But I know your name and age.
In Springtime,
In Summer,
The days you used to live.
Go and be just and sincere
Do all that you can and more.
Don't be afraid, sweet Springtime,
Don't you fret, dear Summer,
Just go and free,
Be the person you want to be
And the light will never fade.
