Standard (EADGBE)

The night never looked

 As dark as this

 When the world slipped

Through our fingertips

I held you close

 The tears pouring down

 With thoughts of him

Spinning around

A spark of life

 Like the wind to a flame

Who can stand

 And who's to blame

And who are we

 When we fail to cope

 In the bad times

 Is where we find our hope

We cannot answer

We'll never know

What is the basic question

Grows and grows

It's a life long mystery

Buried in the sand

 It's all a part

 Of God's plan

So hold me tight

 Through this lullaby

 There's always tomorrow

 And the answer is life

And who are we

 When we fail to cope

 In the bad times

 Is where we find our hope

We cannot answer

We'll never know

What is the basic question

Grows and grows

It's a lifelong mystery

Buried in the sand

 It's all a part

 Of God's plan

Solo

It's a lifelong mystery

Buried in the sand

 It's all a part

 Of God's plan

It's all a part

 Of God's plan

It's all a part

 Of God's plan
