Higher and brighter Every day You float like an angel Flying further away Oh-oh-oh, leaving me Your perfect memory See the chalk on the sidewalk The rain is washing away All the colours are blending Swirling down the drain Oh-oh-oh, leave no trace No picture of your face One day you will vanish No form left for me to see Just an old idea Shining silver for me
Now I am frozen Here in your past Like a snowy Christmas scene Inside a globe of gla** Turn me over in your hand Stir me to life once again One day I will vanish No features for eyes to see Just an old idea A half-remembered melody So leave if you will You leave me the best of you still Cold and bright In the night that's calling me
