Heaven today is but a way To a place I once called home. Heart of a child, one final sigh As another love goes cold. Once my heart beats to the rhythm of the falling snow blackened below. The river now flows - a stream on molten virgin snow. [Chorus:] For the heart I'll never have, For the child forever gone The music flows because it longs For the heart I once had. Living today without a way To understand the weight of the world. Faded and torn, old and forlorn My weak and hoping heart. For the child, for the night For the heart I once had I believe and foresee Everything I could ever be. [Chorus] Time will not heal a dead boy's scars, Time will kill. [Chorus]
