This song is dedicated to the memory of Taylor Scout Smith. Her father, Tim, provided percussion on the recording. She was a vibrant girl and the lives she touched are forever changed for the better.
lyrics
A heartbeat
moving steady with time
moving steady with mine
how could it ever end
A moment
eternal and true
those moments with you
I never thought they would end
But I know that I will see you again
Cause a light that bright doesn't burn out it simply ascends
Your heartbeat
still beats within mine
the joy you left behind
oh it carries me through
This life
though fragile and frail
with grace you prevailed
though it still feels far too soon
But I know that I will see you again
Cause a light that bright doesn't burn out it simply ascends
But I know that I will see you once again
Cause a light that bright doesn't burn out it simply ascends
Your heartbeat
moves outside of time
still moves within mine
It will never end
