Floodgates (Drives Away the Dark)
A picture in a heart-shaped frame
Is all I have to cling to
A picture at my bedside
The only memory true
Sometimes a word will be spoken
An expression or a gesture
Will bring it all back home
And the floodgates open wide
She's been gone for many years
But she lives on in my heart
When the light comes through my window
It drives away the dark
She showed me the gifts life has to offer
Showed me the majesty of love
Opened my eyes to the beauty that surrounds us
Her very presence was enough
She's been gone for many years
But she lives on in my heart
When the light comes through my window
It drives away the dark
Sometimes life crosses the boundaries
It's measured by the distance
Memories of loved ones who will never fade away
Keep us safe from harm's resistance
She's been gone for many years
But she lives on in my heart
When the light comes through my window
It drives away the dark
Is all I have to cling to
A picture at my bedside
The only memory true
Sometimes a word will be spoken
An expression or a gesture
Will bring it all back home
And the floodgates open wide
She's been gone for many years
But she lives on in my heart
When the light comes through my window
It drives away the dark
She showed me the gifts life has to offer
Showed me the majesty of love
Opened my eyes to the beauty that surrounds us
Her very presence was enough
She's been gone for many years
But she lives on in my heart
When the light comes through my window
It drives away the dark
Sometimes life crosses the boundaries
It's measured by the distance
Memories of loved ones who will never fade away
Keep us safe from harm's resistance
She's been gone for many years
But she lives on in my heart
When the light comes through my window
It drives away the dark
