lyrics

And so we go from here
Back to our own lives
Back to our work-a-day world
The world of all our toiling
Doing what we have to to survive

My heart is breaking
It’s full of so much joy
It feels like it’s beating for the first time
Open and alive
It’s like there’s nothing I can’t do if I won’t try

Under this open sky
Oh we are free to laugh and to cry
Oh let me sing
My heart has wings today

Into this clear blue day
Oh let the rains come and wash all our sins away
We are beautiful
And when I leave
I will remember
Oh remember

Here in this moment
Every heart is open wide
Every hand is kind
And even though we’re strangers
Warmly we embrace
And all our troubles are just left behind

I stand beside you now
And I don’t even know your name
But I know that we are friends
United by this beauty
Caught up in this grace
Maybe somewhere we will meet again

Under this open sky
Oh we are free to laugh and to cry
Oh let me sing
My heart has wings today

Into this clear blue day
Oh let the rains come and wash all our sins away
Oh we are beautiful
And when I leave
I will remember
Oh remember

Hey la la la la la ley
Hey la la la la la ley
Oh remember
Hey la la la la la ley
Hey la la la la la ley
