[Verse 1]
Like a light that fades away
Another person may leave us
I was not able to grow up
But I don't have the words to tell anyone
[Pre-Chorus]
Things that are beautiful
Things to be cherished
I was given more than
I could hold in my arms
[Chorus]
As your finger traces, the outline of a cloud
You are drawing something
That I can no longer see
Even if there were words to say to you
They would be beyond my reach
[Verse 2]
Though I never asked this of you
I know you were always watching over me
I may not be thе one to say
But I pray that you will be kind
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe wе are not the perfect match
Maybe we are incomplete
I don't know how to give up so
I stay here with you
[Chorus]
The rainbow drawn on the papier mâché craft
The over-used relay baton
If only I had one thing
I could pass on to you
I could be at least a little proud
[Bridge]
I turn the last page and close a picture book
Who does this life belong to? Who is this life for?
Who is this life for? Who is this life for? Who is this life for?
Your future is so bright
An empty slate that
Can be filled with your colors
[Chorus]
As your finger traces the outline of a cloud
You are drawing something
I can no longer see
Even if there were words to say to you
They would be beyond my reach
One day you will find that someone
That you just want to make happy
When that day comes
If it makes you smile and nod
There is nothing else you need
