Intro
If I died tomorrow would this song live on forever?
Here is my...
unopened letter to a world
that never shall reply
Verse 1
If I died tomorrow would this song live on forever?
Here is my
unopened letter to a world
that never shall reply, never shall reply
Chorus 1
From this second story window I can hear the church bells
calling out my name. This table is set for one
Even angels would be homesick in this forsaken town
Verse 2
On random notes of parchment I'm scrawling my existence
Dressed in white, This candle radiates throughout the night
And it's never burning out, Never burning out
Chorus 2
From this second story window I can hear the children
down on Main Street They're singing their songs tonight
In the shadows, I will listen to their every movement
Bridge
Mr. Higginson, Am I not good enough for the world?
Am I destined only to die the same way that I lived...
in seclusion
Chorus 3
From high up on this mountain I can almost see
your lonely windowsill, They'll carry you off tonight
There's a ghost in your old bedroom
And a candle burning bright
Outro
If I died tomorrow Would this song live on forever?
