Some time ago
I heard a distant song
A haunting melody
I wanted that for me
And yet, time passes,
And oh, the music fades
So many voices
Calling, so many ways
But I have found my voice
And I know what I must say:

You are my song
You are the reason that I sing
You are my song
My secret melody
You gave me words
You heard my heart
And made sweet harmony
Whatever forever after may bring:
You are the reason I sing.

Now here we are,
In this moment that I dreamed,
With just a memory
Of the emptiness between.
Yet, in the passage,
Always, you were with me.
You’ll be tomorrow,
No matter what it brings.
I’ll never find the words and so
I thank you how I know:

You are my song
You are the reason
That I sing
You are my song
My secret melody
You gave me words
You heard my heart
And made sweet harmony
Whatever forever after may bring:
You are the reason I sing.

Until now, I never knew
Just who you showed me I can be
And now I sing!
That near forgotten melody.

You are my song
You are the reason that I sing
You are my song
My secret melody
You gave me words
You heard my heart
And made sweet harmony
Whatever forever after may bring:
You are the reason I sing.
