What do we have
at the end of our walk
just the smiles on our faces
and a pocketful of rain
I have learned from you
I have laughed with you
I have burned for you
but always, always you’ll be gone
What do we have
at the end of our walk
just the things we have shared
and a pocketful of rain
So grateful to have seen you
I’m honoured to have met you
indebted to your friendship
but always, always you’ll be gone
What do we have
at the end of our walk
just the sparks that were flung
and a pocketful of rain
All that energy we burnt through
all the ink that we spilled
all the time that we spent there
all those moments left bare
Always, always you’ll be gone again
with nothing to show
but a pocketful of rain…
