[music] [music and singing] >> I [music] heard you're leaving town today. >> [singing] [music] >> No time left for words to say. And all the [music] things I meant to do now just fade away [music] with [singing] you. I [music] walk the streets we used to know. >> [singing] [music] >> Every corner whispers low >> [music] >> how I let the moment [singing] pass >> [music] >> like a shadow on the glass. If [music and singing] I had one more night with [music and singing] you, I would say the things [music] I never do. >> [singing] [music] >> Hold you close and make [singing] it right.

Not let [music] go [singing] without a fight. Sha [music] la la >> Sha la la Time was fast. Time was fast. Love don't [music] Love [singing] don't wait. It never lasts. >> [music] >> Now I'm here [singing] with empty sight wishing [music] for one more [singing] night. I thought we had another [singing] [music] day. I thought love [music and singing] would always stay. Funny how a heart can [music] trust. Something [music] fragile turns to dust. >> [music] >> You were standing right [singing] so near. >> [music] >> Still I hid behind my [singing] fear. >> [music] >> Now your train is pulling through >> [music] >> taking all my world with you. >> [singing] [music] >> Some regrets don't fade away.

They grow [music] stronger [singing] day by day. >> [music] >> Like a song that never [singing] ends >> [music] >> calling [singing] out what might have been. If I had one more chance to try, I would never say [singing] >> [music] >> goodbye. Every word I [singing and music] left unsaid now [music] just echoes in my head. [singing] Sha [music] la la Sha la la Too late now. Still I wonder [singing] when and how. >> [music] [music] [singing] [music] >> We were running [singing and music] through the rain laughing like we [music] felt no pain.

Shoes all soaked and hearts so light >> [music] >> dancing in the [music and singing] neon night. You spun around and [music] called my name. Said we'd never change [music and singing] the same. >> [music] >> In that [singing] storm we felt so free like we rode [music] eternity. We were [singing] young in the rain. >> [music] >> Didn't think [singing] of loss or pain. Every [singing and music] drop just felt like gold.

Every touch >> [music] >> was bold. >> [singing] >> Sha la la Wild [music] and true all the world [music and singing] was me and you. Now I [music and singing] stand here once again missing you in rain. Time [music] went by the [singing] way it does. >> [music] >> Turned our dreams [singing] to what it was. >> [music] >> Paths we took were [singing] not the same. [music] Still I [music] whisper out your name. Now when [singing] rain falls late [music] at night, I still see [music and singing] you in that light spinning [music] there without a care [singing] like [music and singing] you're always there.

Some [music] moments [singing] never grow old. Even [music and singing] when the hands grow cold, they live [singing] on inside the mind like a treasure [singing] left behind. We were [singing] more than we could [music] see back when [music and singing] love came easily. >> [music] >> Though the years [singing] have pulled us far, >> [music] >> there you always [singing] are. Sha [music] la la Soft refrain >> [music] >> you're still dancing in the rain. >> [music] [music] >> We stood [music] beneath [singing] the lamplight where the shadows moved [music] so slow.

[singing] The world was just a heartbeat [music] and nowhere else to go. Your eyes [music and singing] were soft as midnight. Your voice a quiet [music] tune. And somewhere far [singing] above us hung a gentle silver moon. >> [music] >> You brushed away a strand [singing] of hair that fell across my face. [music] And time became [singing] a fragile trembling [music] place. Oh, the night we almost [singing and music] kissed.

Still [singing] lingers like a wish >> [music] >> hanging [singing] in the air between >> [music] >> what was and what we [singing] missed. >> [music] >> Oh, the night we almost knew [singing] what hearts meant to do [singing and music] still [singing] lives inside my dreams. [music] Just me and you. You said my [music] name so softly [singing] like it might just slip away. And I held on to every breath you [music] gave.

But something in the silence kept us standing where we were. Like love was just [music] a story we were scared to stir. Then footsteps [music] passed between us and the [singing] moment disappeared >> [music] >> leaving only what we never dared. [singing] If I had leaned a little [singing] more if you had stayed a while would we have found forever in that single fragile smile? The night we almost [music and singing] kissed >> [music] >> still lingers [singing] like a wish >> [music] >> hanging in the air between [singing] >> [music] >> what was and what we missed.

Oh, the night we almost [singing] knew >> [music] >> what hearts are >> [singing] >> meant to do >> [music] >> still lives [singing and music] inside my dreams. Just me and you. [music and singing] Don't fade away. >> [music] >> That almost love still stays. >> [music] [music] >> I was walking down [singing] the lane >> [music] >> trying not to feel the rain. Then you smiled [music] and called [singing] my name and my world [music and singing] was not the same.

Simple [music and singing] girl with simple grace heaven written on your face. Every step I took with you felt [music] like [singing] something pure and true. >> [music] >> Sweet little [singing] heart of mine beating right in time with thine. >> [music] >> Ooh, every dream [singing] I ever knew started [music] when I met you. Sha la la don't [music] you stray. Stay with me, don't fade [singing] away. Love so [music] soft, love so fine >> [music] >> sweet little heart [singing] of mine.

We don't [music] need no fancy things >> just the joy that [singing] love can bring. Walking slow side by [music] side [singing] >> with no reason left to hide. Even when the skies [music] turn gray [singing] >> I won't let you drift away. Hold you close and let you see >> [music and singing] >> what your love has done to me. If the world should turn around >> [singing] >> and we lose what we have found >> [music] >> still I know inside [singing] my chest you [music] have always been my best.

[singing] Sweet little heart >> [screaming] >> so true everything I am is you. >> [music] >> Ooh, every road I walk along [music] leads me [music and singing] where you belong. >> [music and singing] >> Stay with me. You're my only melody. >> [singing] [music] >> The station lights were glowing low. [singing] >> [music] >> Your little [music] bag whistle [singing] blow. I tried to smile [music] but time was fast like something good that [music and singing] couldn't last.

You held my hand so soft, so tight [music] like we could stop >> [music] >> the coming night. >> [singing] >> Your eyes were full of things [music] unsaid >> [music] >> like quiet tears [singing] we never shared. >> [music] >> Just one kiss before the train [singing] before you fade into the [music] rain. Don't [singing] let go so suddenly. [music] Take a piece [music and singing] of me with you. Sha la la don't turn away. >> [music] >> Let me hold this final day.

Love was here [music] so warm, so true. >> [music] >> Now it rides away [singing] with you. >> [music] >> The whistle cried, the doors pulled wide. The world [music] kept moving by [singing] your side. I [music] stood there frozen in the gray [singing] watching all [music] my [singing] dreams pull away. Your hand slipped slow [singing] out of mine like a broken tender [singing] line. >> [music] >> And in the smoke and iron sound >> [music] >> my heart fell [singing] softly to the ground.

[music] Some goodbyes don't shout or cry. [singing] They just pass [music] like trains go by leaving echoes [singing] in the chest of a love that gave its best. One last [music] kiss I still [singing] can feel like a wound that doesn't heal. >> [music] >> Ooh, [singing] every night I hear that sound bringing all [singing] the memories [music] down. Sha la la la Far you go [music and singing] Still I stand where we sat [singing and music] so >> [music] >> There's a light that's always [music and singing] dim On the porch [music] we once stood in And I pass [music and singing] it every night >> [music] >> Like I'm drawn to that old [singing] light Neighbors [music] say [singing] you've long been gone >> [music] >> Moved away [singing] and carried on >> [music] >> But [singing] my feet don't seem to learn How to stop or how [music] to turn I still [music] wait at [singing] your door >> [music] >> Like I did [singing] so long before >> [music] >> Though I know you're not inside Still I stand here every [singing] night [music] Sha la la la la la la Sha la la la foolish [music and singing] heart Sha la la Never knew [singing] >> [music] >> where to start Love [music] don't listen [singing] to what's true >> [music] >> It just waits for you >> [music and singing] >> I remember how you'd smile [music] Open up and stay awhile [music and singing] Every step a little spark >> [music] >> Lighting up my [singing] quiet dark >> [music] >> Now that door just stays the same >> [singing] [music] >> But it doesn't call my name >> [singing and music] >> Still I linger in that place Hoping [music and singing] time Might change its face [music] Some hearts never say goodbye >> [music] >> They just wait [singing] and wonder why >> [music] >> Even when the truth [singing] is clear >> [music] >> Hope still whispers [singing] in the ear >> [music] >> I still stand [singing] where we once were Listening for something [music] more >> [singing] >> Even if you never come >> [music] >> I won't say that love is done Sha la la la la la la >> [singing] >> Let it be This is what [music] love made of me >> [singing] [music] >> Don't walk out that [singing] door just yet There's a tune we haven't met Let the record spin once [music] more Like we did [music] so long before Your coat's [music] on but hold it still There's a chance [singing] we always [music] will Find the words [music] we couldn't say >> [singing] >> If you only [music] choose to stay Stay just [music] one more song with me That's all I'm asking [music] can't you see Let the music [singing] make it right [music] Hold me [singing] through the night >> [music] >> Sha la la la la Don't you go >> [music] >> Let [singing] this moment gently flow One [music] more chance before you're gone >> [singing] >> Stay just [music] one more song >> [music] >> We've been quiet far too long >> [music] >> Hiding truths we felt were wrong But the melody is [music] kind >> [music] >> Brings the truth we leave behind >> [singing and music] >> Take my hand and don't pretend >> [music] >> We both know this isn't end Love don't [singing] leave [music] so easily Not [music and singing] when it still breathes >> [music] >> If we walk away tonight We may lose what [music] once felt [singing] right So let the music softly say >> [singing] >> What we're scared [music] to say Stay until [singing] the last note fades >> [music] >> Till the [singing] night begins to break >> [music] >> Even if [singing] we fall again >> [music] >> Let it [singing] be like then Sha la la la la la [music] la Don't be strong >> [singing] [music] >> Just stay One more song >> [music] [music] >> I see them walking [music and singing] hand in hand Like [music] we once used to do With dreams too big for [music and singing] time to hold and hearts So pure [music] and new >> [singing] >> They laugh the way we [music] used to laugh Before [music] we understood That love can be both >> [music] >> beautiful [singing] And not Always stay good [music and singing] We were young once too [music] With skies forever blue Believing [music and singing] every word of love Was always [singing] true >> [music] [singing] >> We were young once [music] too Just [singing] like they are tonight Dancing in a world full of >> [music] >> light. >> [music] >> I don't feel sad or broken [singing] now.

Just [music] softer than [singing] before. For every [music and singing] love that shaped my heart and [music] opened every door. [singing] And [music] though the years have changed us in ways [singing] we couldn't see, I'm thankful [music] for the girl [singing] I was and all she gave to me. Youth [music] may [singing] fade, but love remains [music] in quiet gentle ways. We were young once, [music and singing] too. With skies forever blue, >> [music] >> believing [singing] every word of a love [music] was always [singing] [music] true. >> [singing] >> We were young once, too.

Just like they are tonight. Dancing [music] in a world full of light. >> [music] >> And that was enough. [singing] >> [music] [music] >> The evening settles [music] softly on our little [singing] wooden porch. Fireflies [music and singing] are dancing where the honeysuckle grows. You pull me [music] close and we begin [singing] our slow and gentle sway on this old [music and singing] porch swing that creaks in the sweetest way. >> [music] >> The world feels far away.

Just you and [singing] me tonight. [music] Underneath the silver moon, everything feels [music] right. No need for words, no need [music] to chase [singing] the dawn. Just [music] the quiet [singing] rhythm where our two hearts belong. [music] Moonlight [singing] on the porch swing, swaying [music] slow and true. Holding all [singing] the simple love I ever need [music] with you. Every gentle [singing] moment, every tender breath we share.

In [music] this quiet moonlight, [singing] I find my everywhere. >> [singing] [music] >> Moonlight on the porch swing, my darling. Only you. Your fingers [music] [singing] trace a pattern on the back of my hand >> [music] >> while the crickets sing their lullaby [singing] across the land. >> [music] >> The radio plays faintly [singing] from the open window pane. [music] An old familiar [singing] love song we both [music] know by name.

We don't need tomorrow. We don't need yesterday. [singing] Just this peaceful [music] feeling that won't [singing] fade away. No need [music] for promises carved in stone. [music] Just the warmth [singing] of knowing I'm never alone. >> [music] >> Moonlight [singing] on the porch swing, swaying [music] slow and true. Holding all [singing] the simple [music] love I ever need with you. Every gentle [singing and music] moment, every tender breath we share. >> [music] >> In this quiet [singing] moonlight, I find my everywhere.

Moonlight [singing] [music] on the porch swing, my darling. Only you. Time may [singing] pass as seasons change the color of the leaves, but nothing [music] [singing] in this world can take this feeling from [music] me. When the nights grow [singing] colder and the years begin to show, I'll still remember [music and singing] how the moonlight used to glow on our old porch swing where love was soft and slow. One day our hair will silver [music] like the moon above, >> [music] >> but we'll still be here [singing] swaying in this quiet love.

The [music] same old swing will creak beneath our [singing] gentle weight. And every whispered [music] memory will feel like yesterday. [singing] Two [music] souls grown old together, yet young [singing] inside [music] the heart. Forever in this moment that will never part. >> [music] >> Moonlight [singing] on the porch swing, swaying slow and true [music] still holding all [singing] the simple love I ever need [music] with you.

Every [singing] gentle moment, every tender breath [music] we share. In this quiet [singing] moonlight, you are my everywhere. Moonlight on [music and singing] the porch swing, my darling. Only you. >> [singing and music] >> Moonlight on the [music] porch swing, >> [singing] >> my love. Only you. >> [singing] [music] >> You played a >> [singing] >> little melody on that old piano [music] key and said you'd [singing] write a song for me >> [music] >> as sweet as it could [singing] be. >> [music] >> I laughed [singing] and leaned beside you >> [music] >> while the night was [singing] young and still.

And [music] every note [singing] between us felt like [music] something real. It's the song [singing] we never finished. >> [music] >> Still playing in my mind. >> [singing] [music] >> With every broken harmony. >> [music] [singing] >> we left behind. >> [singing] [music] >> It's the song we never finished. [music] >> [singing] >> A love without an end. >> [screaming] [music] >> Just a melody [singing] of what >> [music] >> might have [singing] been.

The piano [singing] now is silent. [music] But I hear it now [singing] and then >> [music] >> in echoes [singing] of a memory that time won't [music] let me mend. You never [music and singing] played the ending. You never wrote >> [singing] >> the truth. You left me [music] with the music >> [music] >> and the ghost of you. Some [music] songs don't need a final [singing] line to break a heart in [singing] two. It's the [music] song we never finished. >> [singing] >> Still playing in my mind.

With [music] every broken harmony [singing] >> [music] >> we [singing] left behind. >> [music] >> It's the song we never finished. >> [music] [singing] >> A love without an end. >> [music] >> Just a melody of what >> [music] >> might have been. [music] Still playing soft. >> [music] [music] >> I [singing] was driving late last night >> [music] >> with the dashboard [singing] dimming light when [music] a song came drifting through and it sounded [music] just like you.

Every [music] note a memory. >> [music] >> Every line a part [singing] of me. And I pulled the car [music] [singing] aside just to [music] sit there with the tide. Old song on the radio. [singing and music] Why you playing [singing] soft and low? Ooh, bringing [music and singing] back the days we knew. All the love [music and singing] I had for you. >> [music] >> Sha la la. Don't you fade. [singing] >> [music] >> Let me live inside [singing] that shade. >> [music] >> Just a moment, just a while.

[singing] >> [music] >> Let me hear her voice [singing] and smile. We used to dance to that same tune >> [music] >> underneath the borrowed moon. You would laugh and [music and singing] spin around like you never touched the ground. >> [music] >> Now it's just a passing sound. [singing] >> [music] >> Still it turns my world [singing] around. >> [music] >> Funny how a [singing] melody can unlock [music] what used [singing] to be.

Time can [music and singing] take the days away. But it cannot stop a [music] play. Or the song inside your soul that [music] still somehow [singing] makes you whole. Old song [singing] slowly [music] fading out leaves me standing here in doubt. >> [music] [singing] >> Was it love or just a dream? >> [music] >> Or somewhere in between? [singing] >> [music] >> Soft goodbye. In the music you still lie. >> [music] [singing] [music] >> The jukebox [music] played our favorite tune underneath that [music] glowing moon.

[singing] You took [music] my hand, pulled me near like there was [singing] nothing [music] left to fear. We didn't [music and singing] think of passing days or [music] how love might change its ways. We [music] just danced like time was ours [singing] in that [music] room of fading stars. Stay [music] [singing] with me till the last song [music] plays. Till the night turns [singing] into day. [music] Don't let this moment [singing] end.

Be my [music] lover. Be my [singing] friend. Sha [music] la la. Spin me slow >> [singing] [music] >> where the soft old feelings [singing] grow. >> [music] >> Love like this don't [singing] come again. Let [music] it live till the >> [singing] >> end. People [music] left, the lights grew [singing] dim. >> [music] >> But our hearts stayed lost within. Every [music] step a silent [singing] vow to be [music] forever [singing] in the now. >> [music] >> Your cheek [singing] resting close to mine felt like [music] something so [singing] divine. >> [music] >> Like the world could fade away >> [music] >> as long as we [music] could stay.

Now the music's long been [music] gone. >> [singing] >> But I still keep holding [music] on. [singing] To that night so warm and deep. >> [music] >> Like a promise I still keep. Till the last song [music] in my heart. I will keep you [singing] where you are. >> [music] >> Ooh, even when the lights all fade. >> [music] >> Love like ours don't break [singing] or sway. Sha la la la, >> [music] >> hear it play. Softly through the years and gray. >> [music and singing] [music] >> The years were written softly in [music] lines upon our hands.

Through [music] every change in season [singing] we somehow [music] always stand. >> [music] >> No grand [singing] and shining story. >> [music] >> No tale [singing] the world would tell. Just [music] two hearts beating steady. And loving each [singing] other well. We [music] stayed until the end. Through everything we knew. >> [music] >> Through every tear [singing] and broken day. We still [music] held [singing] on to truth.

We stayed until [singing] the end. >> [music] >> No matter where life led. >> [music and singing] >> And even now I feel your hand beside [music] me in my bed. >> [music] >> The house is full of echoes [music and singing] of laughter long [singing] ago. Of little [music] steps and quiet nights. Only we >> [music] >> would know. And though you're gone from sight [music and singing] now you never really >> [music and singing] >> left.

Because a love [singing] like ours, my dear outlives [music] the final [singing] breath. Forever [music and singing] isn't something said. It's something that you do. We [singing] stayed [music] until the end. Through everything we knew. >> [singing] [music] >> Through every tear and broken day. >> [music] [singing] >> We still held on to truth. >> [music] >> We stayed until the end. No matter where life led. >> [music] >> And even now I feel your hand beside [music] me in my bed. >> [singing] >> I >> [music] >> still hear with me. >> [music] [music] >> The night is painted silver.

The town has gone [music and singing] to sleep. We sit upon the hillside [music] where the meadow grasses sweep. Your hand is warm in mine. No [music] other place to be. Just watching how the heavens spill [music] their light [singing] for you and me. No rushing. [music] No pretending. Just breathing side by side. Starlight [singing] in your eyes [music] softer than a dream. Quiet love that [singing] fills the night [music] with every silent beam.

I could stay forever [music and singing] in this moment made for two under starlight [music] in your eyes. My whole world is [music] you. The crickets [music] softly singing their lullaby so [singing] sweet. Your head upon my shoulder [music] makes the evening [singing] feel complete. >> [music] >> We talk about tomorrow [singing] in the gentlest of [music] tones. While the summer breeze [singing] caresses >> [music] >> like a melody of its own.

No promises [singing] are needed [music] when the heart already knows. >> [music] >> Starlight [singing] in your eyes softer [music] than a dream. Quiet love that fills the [singing] night with every silent beam. [music] I could stay forever [singing] in this moment made for [music] two under starlight in your eyes. My whole world is you. If time [music and singing] could stand forever on this quiet hill tonight [singing] I'd wrap [music] you in my arms until the morning [singing] light.

[music] But even when the stars must fade and dawn begins to call this [music] feeling in my heart [singing] will never fade at all. Someday [music] when we're older and the years have silvered through we'll still remember evenings spent [music] beneath this sky so blue. Two hearts that found each other in the simplest, sweetest [music] way. And carried all this starlight [music] [singing] through every passing day. Starlight [music and singing] in your eyes softer than a dream.

Still the [music] quiet love that makes the whole [singing] wide world redeemed. I'll hold you close [music] forever >> [singing] >> in this moment made for two under starlight [music and singing] in your eyes. I'll always love you. In your eyes. >> [singing] >> My love. >> [music] [music] [singing] >> People [music] say [singing] we faded. >> [music] >> Like we never [singing] truly were. >> [music] >> Like all we had [music and singing] was fragile.

And too soft [music] to endure. But [music] they [singing] were never with us. >> [music] >> On those quiet summer nights. When love [music] was all [singing] around us. >> [music] >> In the pale [singing] and gentle light. The love we gave >> [singing] >> was real. No matter how it ends. >> [music] >> No matter where we're going. >> [music] >> Or who we are again. [music] The love we gave was real. [music] And that's enough [music] for me.

[singing] Some [music] hearts don't stay forever. >> [music] >> But they still leave a memory. [singing] >> [music] >> I won't call it a failure. [music] Or something we outgrew. >> [music] >> It was a piece of heaven. >> [music] >> That I found in you. [singing] And even if it's [music] over. I'll never say it died. >> [music] >> Because I feel [singing] it living. Somewhere [music] deep inside. [singing] Not every love is meant to stay.

But every love can shine. The love we gave was real. >> [music] >> No matter how it ends. [music] No matter where we're going. >> [music] >> Or who we are again. The love we gave >> [music] >> was real. And that's [music] enough for me. >> [music] >> Some hearts don't stay forever. >> [music] >> But they still leave a memory. [singing] And >> [music] >> love still does. >> [music] [music]
