Where a Life Goes

What's it like, who you are?
Are you young and beautiful again?
Is it sadness that filled up your life?
Finally lifted and washed away

Do you ever think about us?
Back here in this world of tears and dust
Go now and keep your secret if you must
Where a life goes

What's it like when you wake up?
Do you even sleep?
Do you wonder where you are?
Do you feel the yellow sun?
Are you walkin' on streets of cold?
Are you laughin' like a child
At the million tears you cry?
'Cause you're long and finally satisfied
Where a life goes

I think of all the things they promise you
The richest and the cloudless blue
I know just how you lived your life
And you deserve so much more than you ever knew

Are you floating 'round somewhere out there?
Far past reach of pain and care
With all the love that you can bear
Where a life goes

In this lonely world, we're lost
On an angry sea, we're tossed
But you, my dear, have made it safe across
Where, where
Where, where
Where a life goes
