The Music Will Play On

I've been hearing music
From the moment I was born
Spent a lifetime looking
For where it's coming from
Sometimes I came close to it
Sometimes I got off course
These days I feel I'm heading home
To the music's source

If I could
I'd dance this way forever
But some soon day
My dancing here will end
The music will play on
Then one day
I'll be gone
I'll dance into the darkness
As new life dances in

At times the music's heavy
Then it floats away
A simple steady heartbeat
Can get me through most days
I'll be out here dancing
Long as I can feel the beat
Take my hand my love and catch the
Next dance with me

If I could
I'd dance this way forever
But some soon day
My dancing here will end
The music will play on
Then one day
I'll be gone
I'll dance into the darkness
As new life dances in

No one knows for certain
When their time will come
But life does not go silent
Once our dancing's done
These harmonies will always
Call from beyond the years
The heavens dance forever
To the music of the spheres

If I could
I'd dance this way forever
But some soon day
My dancing here will end
The music will play on
Then one day
I'll be gone
I'll dance into the darkness
As new life dances in

If I could
I'd dance this way forever
But some soon day
My dancing here will end
The music will play on
Then one day
I'll be gone
I'll dance into the darkness
As new life dances in

Into the holy darkness
Where new life begins

Into the holy darkness
Where new life begins
