There's an answer, some day we will know
And you will ask her why she had to go
We live and die, we laugh and we cry
And you must take away the pain
Before you can begin to live again

So let it start, my friend, let it start
Let the tears come rolling from your heart
And when you need a light in the lonely nights
Carry me like a fire in your heart
Carry me like a fire in your heart

There's a river rolling to the sea
You will be with her for all eternity
But we that remain need you here again
So hold her in your memory
And begin to make the shadows disappear

Yes, let it start, my friend, let it start
Let the love come rolling from your heart
And when you need a light in the lonely nights
Carry me like a fire in your heart
Carry me like a fire in your heart

So let it start, my friend, let it start
Let the love come rolling from your heart
And when you need a light in the lonely nights
Carry me like a fire in your heart
Carry me like a fire in your heart
Carry me like a fire in your heart
Carry me like a fire in your heart
