Zzzzzzzz…..
Where have I been? I did not know this beautiful song exists until late last year! The first time I heard the song, I just turned on the TV to SBS World Movies channel one day and the song came on at the end of the movie, Boychoir, I immediately fell in love with the song. So the next time SBS World Movies showed the movie again, I made a point to watch it, and the song was even more meaningful, loving it even more. Unfortunately only the audio version is available on YouTube for the song, wished they could have made a music video with scenes from the movie, haha…

A single note passes out of the ashes
A flickering ember begins
It’s the courage to turn when the pages have burned
And your story now seems at an end
Seasons stay and seasons go
Sending your memories adrift
It’s the beautiful longing, embrace the unknown
That’s the mystery of your gift
And the echoes of your melody will always live in these walls
And the lessons that you gave to me, before you can fly, you must fall
It’s the beautiful longing, embrace the unknown
That’s the mystery of your gift
There’s a voice in the shadow calling for more
There’s a rhythm that beats from within
Lending your voice to the warmth of the song
There’s a strength in the choir of one
Pure as the voice that sees the place where the weight of your past may now lift
It’s the beautiful longing, embrace the unknown
That’s the mystery of your gift
And the echoes of your melody will always live in these walls
And the lessons that you gave to me, before you can fly you must fall
So sing higher & higher, a thousand new voices ring through
If you sing out of the fire, the courage you need comes from you
And the echoes of your melody will always live in these walls
And the lessons that you gave to me, before you can fly, you must fall
It’s the beautiful longing, embrace the unknown
That’s the mystery of your gift
It’s the beautiful longing, embrace the unknown
That’s the mystery of your gift
