Lyrics
some things are beautiful
but then they pass on by
they are here for a time
sun sets a painted sky
a piece of heaven’s lullaby
here for a time
sun grows green
amazing
some things burn so bright
and others dark as night
they are here for a time
rough days will pass over
and people pass away
nothing here gets to stay
I walk alone
here and then gone
short as the song
I sing alone
moonlight breaks the pines
darkness drinks up the light
moon rules full and high
divides our love, our lives
sets us, for a time
some things are beautiful
but then they pass on by
they are here for a time
