In the quiet hours, when the lights are out
And my mind is free to wander
As the embers burn and the planets turn
We just carry on, I wonder
How the sun keeps rising anyway
And I still think of you every day
In a better place
That's what they say
All those photographs of the life we had
Doesn't seem so long ago
And the children born since you've been gone
I wish you had the chance to know
But the sun keeps rising anyway
And I still think of you every day
I hope that you're OK
Are you OK?
But the sun keeps rising anyway
You're in a better place
That's what they say
And my mind is free to wander
As the embers burn and the planets turn
We just carry on, I wonder
How the sun keeps rising anyway
And I still think of you every day
In a better place
That's what they say
All those photographs of the life we had
Doesn't seem so long ago
And the children born since you've been gone
I wish you had the chance to know
But the sun keeps rising anyway
And I still think of you every day
I hope that you're OK
Are you OK?
But the sun keeps rising anyway
You're in a better place
That's what they say
