Lyrics
Soft as the hush in a starlight night
You come like a beam through the shadow-light
Whispers bloom where silence grows
In the garden no one knows
We wake and tie our dreams in rows
With every dawn, a fragile rose
Some shape of beauty pulls me near
Lifts the veil of quiet fear
Sun and moon and daffodils
Time stands still, and always will
Though the dark may brush our skin
We hold the light we carry in
Even in the days that ache
We find the sky in the smallest break
Breathing deep where shadows fall
A single flower breaks it all
Yes, in spite of all we lose
We chase the light in every bruise
Some shape of beauty pulls me near
Lifts the veil of quiet fear
Sun and moon and daffodils
Time stands still, and always will
Though the dark may brush our skin
We hold the light we carry in
Some shape of beauty, wild and free
Wraps its golden arms ‘round me
We live for beauty — or we die
We live for beauty
We live for beauty
We live for beauty, or we die
