Was he everybody's heartbeat?
Was he everybody's soul?
The world is dark without him
As hard and black as coal
The light was snuffed out with him
With the sparkle in his eyes
People say it was his fate
A dark and wicked guise
They say it was a tragedy
Continue with their lives
But every time I try to live
The pain's like white hot knifes
His eyes could see into my soul
And right into my heart
He used it as a weapon
A cruel and callous art
But I saw beyond his icy mask
To the gentle man inside
And once he saw into my mind
It was a wild ride
This darkness that I live in
He was my shining light
I am lost without him
Day faded into night
He didn't take me with him
As he always said he would
Beyond the endless sea of dreams
As he always said he could
He swore to take me too
Into this land of light
But though the cage was open
He alone took flight
And I miss him more with every breath
And every fiber of my brain
I hear his laughter on the breeze
In all the silver rain
He told me not to cry for him
Cos he is still alive
He is the cool wind in the trees
He is the swallows dive
He is the rainbow full of dreams
The Oak tree strong and proud
He is the snowy mountain tops
He is the darkest shroud
He is the starlight in the sky
He is the evening tide
He is the newborn bear cub
Born to play and hide
He is an angel in the air
Plucking on a harp
He is the rushing water
The very playful carp
And I know I'll always miss him
But I also know I'll heal
For although I'll always love him
I know I'll always feel
He's still alive inside my soul
And so he'll always be
And we never will be parted
He is a part of me
