Silent sea tell this to me

Where are the children

That we used to be?

At picture shows

Where nobody goes

And only the heart can see

Starry skies, soft lullabies

Where do they go when their melody dies?

To a day, far, far away

That only the heart may know

Friends we knew follow us through

All of the days of our lives

Love we shared waits for us there

Where our wishes forever reside

Falling tears, memories mirrors

Where are the summers

Oh, where are the years?

Carried far

To a wandering star                                                   

That only the heart may know

Friends we know follow us through

All of the days of our lives

Love we shared waits for us there

where our wishes forever reside

Starry skies, soft lullabies

Where do they go when their melody dies?

To a day far, far away

That only the heart may know

That only the heart may know

A song written by Dan Folgelberg and sung as a duet with Emmylou Harris)
