For Every Shadow

For every shadow there's a light
And every dawn follows night time
For a word to come to you
It must rest on a bed of silence

And though pain may come and go
There's only now
And your time is the gift you give me

Every milestone you have passed
Now unchangeable behind you
Every memory will not last
Yet every moment worth preserving

And though comforts come and go
There's only now
And your time is the gift you gave me

Only now are we the light
Only now are we the darkness
Only now are we the light
Only now are we the darkness

This universe is vast
Its history immemorial
Stumbling 'round on this speck of dust
We are given no heed or warning

That life comes and goes
There's now
And that time is the gift it gives us

Only now are we the light
Only now are we the darkness
Only now are we the light
Only now are we the darkness
Only now are we the light
Only now are we the darkness?
