Shine On

I was looking at a photograph,\nTaken in a garden long before the war,\nAnd out on the lawn,\nThere were old men and dogs and little children,\nAll of them gone forever;\nAnd there were people by the waterside,\nStanding in the same place where I am today,\nNothing has changed — but you know,\nThat time is moving like a river,\nIt can only be love forever;\nWe shine on, brighter than the sun,\nLive for every moment, before the moment’s gone,\nWe shine on, you and me tonight,\nWay across the universe,\nBurning like a fire in the night;\nThere are those who can never cross,\nThe space between a father and a son,\nWhen they are young,\nWe must say all the words that should be spoken,\nBefore they are lost forever;\nAnd I was looking at a photograph,\nTaken from a window way above the world,\nAnd we’ve got to learn,\nWe must leave here a garden for our children,\nWhen we are gone forever;\nWe shine on, brighter than the sun,\nLive for every moment, before the moment’s gone,\nWe shine on, you and me tonight,\nWay across the universe,\nBurning like a fire in the night;
