THE BOOK OF LIFE-白鳥英美子

Long ago somewhere in the future

In a place beyond space and time

There's a book for all to see

What has been, what could be

Prophesies of the ages

Every little joy, every sorrow

Every little tear that is cried

Every word and deed

Every thought and feeling

All written there on the pages

Some embrace only shadow

Some embrace the light

But the lives that we lead

Are the stories we leave

There in the Book of life

Now this place is only a memory

Haunting as a dream from afar

And our hearts have lost the key

We don't know how to read

Signs that are there to guide us

Maybe we don't know all the answers

Maybe we can't change who we are

All we have is love

We can give our children

Love that will follow behind us

Some embrace only shadow

Some embrace the light

But the lives that we lead

Are the stories we leave

There in the Book of life
