[Verse 1 - soft piano, intimate female vocal] The night keeps stealing all our light One by one we're losing sight I've watched the strongest hearts give way I've felt my own begin to break I wear a smile they need to see Though fear still follows after me There are moments I can't pretend... I don't know how this story ends [Pre-Chorus - strings begin to swell] But somewhere underneath the pain A quiet whisper speaks my name It tells me not to let go yet... [Chorus - soaring orchestral power ballad] Love... Is stronger than the darkest night Stronger than our last goodbye Higher than these weary wings When they've forgotten how to fly Love... Is the one thing death can't claim The one true fire that still remains And even when the stars grow dim... Love... Will burn again [Verse 2 - fuller instrumentation] I've seen the beauty leave their eyes I've heard a thousand hopeless cries I've watched good people lose their way One more piece with every day The world has changed beyond repair Still something beautiful is there Not in kingdoms built from stone... But every heart that still holds on [Pre-Chorus] Not with thunder Not with flame Just a whisper... Calling my name [Chorus - bigger] Love... Is stronger than the darkest night Stronger than our last goodbye Higher than these weary wings When they've forgotten how to fly Love... Is the one thing death can't claim No shadow steals, no fear can chain And even if this whole world falls... Love... Outlives us all [Bridge - stripped back piano, gradually building] If every light should fade away... Then let this heart still shine. Because no darkness ever made... The sun forget to rise. And though this world may pass away... Love's the one thing death can't claim. [Final Chorus - key change, choir, full orchestra] LOVE... Is stronger than the fear we hide Stronger than the turning tide Greater than the hands of time More alive than you and I LOVE... Cannot perish Cannot break Cannot bow to fear or hate And though this world may pass away... Love's the one thing death can't claim.
