lyrics

A great darkness makes its way to the forefront of my mind
The greatest darkness that I've ever faced alive

Oh, you took my hand
You looked me square in the face and said, "one day you'll understand"

You said, "the sun will still shine"
I sneak a smile when you cross my mind
And even still its crystal clear that the world keeps turning
Even when you're not here
Oh, and all of the times when I was too scared to say you were right
You were right, you were right, here

A man of courage is a man who has strength for his kin
Despite the ailments that plague him he is stronger than sin

Oh, you taught me to withstand
I was a scared little boy with a hole in his heart
And a soul to align

You said, "the sun will still shine"
I sneak a smile when you cross my mind
And even still its crystal clear that the world keeps turning
Even when you're not here
Oh, and all of the times when I was too scared to say you were right
You were right, you were right, here

A cold winter lies ahead, so they tell me
This fervent summer nearly scorched my resolve
So when the winter comes I will build a fire
A fire to commemorate all that made you, you

An old friend walks with me to the shadow of deaths door
His head held high with a smile as he sinks into the floor

Oh, and now I understand
You're still here in the warmth of the sun,
On the cape cod shores and Connecticut pine

You said, "the sun will still shine"
I sneak a smile when you cross my mind
And even still its crystal clear that the world keeps turning
Even when you're not here
Oh, and all of the times when I was too scared to say you were right
You were right, you were right, here
