| Where did we come from? |
| Why are we here?
|
| Where do we go when we die?
|
| What lies beyond and what lay before?
|
| Is anything certain in life?
|
| They say, «Life is too short, the here and the now»
|
| And you’re only given one shot
|
| But could there be more? |
| Have I lived before?
|
| Or could this be all that we’ve got?
|
| If I die tomorrow, I’d be alright
|
| Because I believe that after we’re gone
|
| The spirit carries on I used to be frightened of dying
|
| I used to think death was the end
|
| But that was before, I’m not scared anymore
|
| I know that my soul will transcend
|
| I may never find all the answers
|
| I may never understand why
|
| I may never prove what I know to be true
|
| But I know that I still have to try
|
| If I die tomorrow, I’d be alright
|
| Because I believe that after we’re gone
|
| The spirit carries on Move on, be brave, don’t weep at my grave
|
| Because I am no longer here
|
| But please never let
|
| Your memory of me disappear
|
| Safe in the light that surrounds me Free of the fear and the pain
|
| My questioning mind has helped me to find
|
| The meaning in my life again
|
| Victoria’s real, I finally feel
|
| At peace with the girl in my dreams
|
| And now that I’m here, it’s perfectly clear
|
| I found out what all of this means
|
| If I die tomorrow, I’d be alright
|
| Because I believe that after we’re gone
|
| The spirit carries on |
