lyrics

I Love you and I always will
Even when you died I came to see you every day
and I trust you for advice, when things go wrong
and I ask you, my dear, why do things always go wrong

It's been so long since I've seen your eyes
There's a sadness spinning around my heart when I see your..
face behind the panes of glass that keep you safe
But I question why. I question why every day

All of these workings in my chest keep my broken heart beating on
even though you've been gone
They keep my heart moving on
and every day since your light's been gone
I keep this world beating on

This time it's worse than we've ever seen
If I could only know What's on your mind. I know somehow.
You'd know just what to say. To calm me down
But I can't get through no I can't through No i can't get through...

And I thought I heard your voice Somewhere among the static
talking about a dream from a lifetime ago from a lifetime ago

all of these workings in my chest keep my broken heart beating on
even though you've been gone
They keep my heart moving on
and every day since your light's been gone
I keep this world beating on

and on and on and on
all of these workings in my chest keep my broken heart beating on (FIN)
