Carolann Solebello: songs

• MP3 play whole song, hi-fi (broadband)

I feel you right beside me when I walk alone at night
Your silent voice assures me there is life beyond the light
And though my steps ring a cappella on this hollow stone
As sure as I can sing my name I know I’m not alone

You ran as fast as you could run as far as you could go
Into the great beyond above and left me here below
And as I try to fill this page with lyrics to your song
I know the flame that’s twice as bright will burn but half as long

But you burn in me
You burn in me

When we were young I spent my time just barely keeping pace
One breath behind, one step too short – you always won the race
And now that I am grown I live the dreams we talked about
How can it be that you’re within while I am left without?

But you burn in me
You burn in me

You and I on the front porch laughing wild
Your clear blue eyes look through me and once again I’m a child
I know that I’m just dreaming
I know you feel no pain
Your candle burned so briefly
Intense
But not in vain

So many years have come and gone since you’ve been in the ground
I still can feel you singing to my heart without a sound
Your song remains unfinished and your story stays untold
And only God almighty hears the music of your soul

But you burn in me
You burn in me
