So rise the children of the sky How they wave at us from up above While we here on the waves drift from day to day Never knowing of their love Those times You and I had tried to change our impossible ways But on the way to become what we'd become We lost the chance again But on the way to become what we'd become We lost the chance again That smile, memories of a time How we cruel people never seem to really learn And when I got home that dawn to learn you had gone Never to return And when I got home that dawn to learn you had gone Never to return And when I got home that dawn to learn you had gone Never to return So rise the children of the sky How they wave to us from above While we here waste away upon our day today Never knowing of their love Those times you and I had tried To take back what the world had cruelly stole But when I see you, I see that missing part of me That never will be whole But when I see you, I see that missing part of me That never will be whole
