Here & Gone Lyrics

Verse 1:

Watching lightning burn across the night

Like the stars surrender to the light

And I saw our lives flash before our eyes

And I realize…

Chorus:

We are rising like tide

We are falling like the Sun

We are temporary dreams

We shine like gold and turn to dust

We won't take this life for granted

Cause we never know how long

We'll be dancing in the moon light

To a slow and timeless song

And our love is like the dark before the dawn.

We're here and then we're gone (x4)



Verse 2:

Picking flowers in the pouring rain

Just to see the flicker of the smile upon your face

Even though I know we both will fade away

I do it anyway

Chorus:
…
We're here and then we're gone (x3)

Bridge:

There a beauty in knowing

That it all goes by too fast

But we'll cherish every moment

Like it's our last

Chorus:
…
We're here and then we're gone (x4)

We're here and then we're gone (no music)
