Farewell for now, our cruel world
Where shadows grew strong in the night
but never crossed into light
We wished and we searched for a world free of pain
but we haven’t seen a glimpse of it today
So for now, lets make a promise that they can’t break
Chorus
We cried out for one another and we cherished every name
As we shared the joy and love we had, despite of what remained
And we took a vow together that we’d trust each other’s words
And we embraced each other’s sorrows and overcame the hurt
Perhaps there’s somewhere in this land where I can see you once again
I just hope you won’t forget
Please remember me and the truth we hoped to see
Goodnight for now, our cruel world
they don’t have to know, it’s alright if we carry this weight.
But time moves, so fast and I wish it would stop
so I could hold your hand just one last time.
I know it’s a dream, but in the dark, it’s all I need
Chorus
On a sunny day I take a walk and bask in the warm sun
And on a cold and rainy day with my umbrella I would run
And when tears keep streaming down my face I’d catch them one by one
And when I’m hurt and filled with bruises I would carry on.
The promise that we make today, it’s in my heart it never fades
I can hear the blowing wind,
Calling through the map, it’s a sound I won’t forget.
(Instrumental)
Chorus
We cried out for one another and we cherished every name
As we shared the joy and love we had, despite of what remained
And we took a vow together that we’d trust each other’s words
And we embraced each other’s sorrows and overcame the hurt
I hear the morning bells, it rings, clear and loud
The sun it shines, the dawn is calling in the truth, name of love
Don’t be afraid, let’s go now
Perhaps there’s somewhere in this land where I can see you once again
I just hope you won’t forget, please remember what we had
Inside our hearts we made a vow, a promise that we kept till now
So I hope you won’t forget
Please remember me and the truth we hope to see.
