If I died tomorrow
Would this song live on forever?
And here is my
Unopened letter to a world
That never shall reply

If I died tomorrow
Would this song live on forever?
And here is my
Unopened letter to a world
That never shall reply
Never shall reply

From this second-story window
I can hear the church bells calling out my name
This table is set for one
Even angels would be homesick
In this forsaken town

On random notes of parchment
I'm scrawling my existence
Dressed in white
This candle radiates throughout the night
And it's never burning out
Never burning out

From this second-story window
I can hear the children down on Main Street
They're singing their songs tonight
In the shadows I will listen to their every movement
Mr Higginson, am I not good enough for the world?
Am I destined only to die
The same way that i lived
In seclusion?

But high up on this mountain
I can almost see your lonely window sill
That'll carry you off tonight
There's a ghost in your old bedroom
And a candle burning bright

If died tomorrow
Would this song live on forever?
