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]
