The Weight of Forever

[Verse 1] The wind grows quiet The stars lean low A thousand footsteps Beneath the stone Your voice like thunder Soft as the dawn "Every guardian Was once someone." [Pre-Chorus] You do not promise An ending fair Only that someone Must still be there The silence waits For my reply Like all the desert Holding its breath tonight [Chorus] If forever Has to belong to someone Then let it find me If every sunrise Needs a pair of patient eyes I'll learn to see If every traveler Needs a hand they never know To guide them home Then take my name Leave me the purpose I'll carry The weight of forever [Verse 2] The crown is heavier Than any chain Built from the echoes Of every name Every goodbye I've ever known Becomes another Stone on the throne [Bridge] Don't call this mercy Don't call this fate This is a promise Only love could make If they remember Then that's enough Even if someday They forget us [Final Chorus] If forever Has to belong to someone Then let it find me When every lifetime Falls like grains into the wind I'll still remain Watching horizons Waiting for another soul To lose their way Take every heartbeat Every tomorrow Every century Every sorrow Leave me the burden Leave me the dawn Until the day Morning comes...
