You Will Remain Lyrics

I've put stock in things now vanishing,
Invested time and energy,
This fleeting world, it flies by too soon.
I've focused on the past, alas,
It seems these things weren't built to last
I've watched them fall and crumble next to you.

The burdens that we carry, are all temporary.
Photographs and memories will fade.
The storms we're left to weather
will not last forever.
When all is said and done you will remain,
when all is said and done you will remain.

We're passengers transitioning,
from high to low to in between.
Exhausted by the search
it seems we're spent.
To dwell, to keep it in my mind
ensures that I've been left behind,
confused by life, and asking where it went.

The burdens that we carry, are all temporary. Photographs and memories will fade.
The storms we're left to weather
will not last forever.
When all is said and done you will remain,
when all is said and done you will remain.

Consistently, you show consistency,
in a world were ever-changing means
nothing's here to stay,
Still you remain.
And when the lights finally fade
We find ourselves standing face to face
with things that I've gripped tight
and hoped to save,
Your hand is clenched in mine to do the same.

The burdens that we carry, are all temporary.
Photographs and memories will fade.
The storms we're left to weather
will not last forever.
When all is said and done you will remain,
when all is said and done you will remain.
