love lives on

everyone you've ever loved
they will never leave you
those who say it's not enough
are only trying to deceive you
the people who think
they are learned and wise
are deluding themselves
with their misleading lies
when they tell you
everything dies
they're wrong
love lives on


every dream you've ever dreamed
breathes inside forever
no ifs, ands, or buts
or in-betweens
dreams won't leave you
never
the people who think
their fate is decided
are fooling themselves
but they're only misguided
you and your dreams
will be reunited
and strong
love lives on


     don't let anyone tell you
     they're trying to sell you
     a bushel of lies
     when all is forsaken
     that's when you're taken
     by surprise


every heart that's ever been broken
is ready for mending
that's a promise that lives unspoken
ain't no pretending
when you believe
you're completely alone
hopelessly helpless
and lost on your own
there's a place in your soul
where you're always at home
that rises like the dawn
love lives on
love lives on


everyone you've ever loved

they will never leave you...
