Not the Same

I heard a note

In the dark

Where it slipped into my mind

And somehow still remains

Time comes and goes

Ebbs and flows

And somehow that single note

Still rings on and sustains

For I need someone

Not just anyone

For when all is said and done

Anyone

Anyone

Else

Is not the same

There was a soul in the dark

And it flies across the night

Towards a far distant flame

Cross forest and streets, every beat

Keeps it moving towards a goal

It may never obtain

For it needs someone

Not just anyone

For when all is said and done

Anyone

Anyone

Else

Is not the same

You were the hope that I kept

Secretly inside and by

My whole life it was framed

Some never saw or suspected

That it was there and I

All alone knew your name

For we need someone

Not just anyone

For when all is said and done

Anyone

Anyone

Else

Is not the same
