Lyrics
[verse]
Every morning I still reach for the phone
Half expecting your voice, not alone
Empty chair where you used to sit
Still can't believe I'm living with it
The whole crew asking where you at
Nobody's got the heart to answer that
[chorus]
Wherever you are, I hope you can hear
I'm carrying your name year after year
Every song I write got a piece of you in
Every stage I take, I feel you again
Gone too soon but never really gone
Your light keeps shining, keeps playing on
[verse]
Pictures on the wall, memories in the hall
Used to laugh so hard we'd nearly fall
Now the laughter's quieter than before
But I still hear your footsteps at the door
The world moved on but I kept your seat
Still saving room for when we meet
[chorus]
Wherever you are, I hope you can hear
I'm carrying your name year after year
Every song I write got a piece of you in
Every stage I take, I feel you again
Gone too soon but never really gone
Your light keeps shining, keeps playing on
[bridge]
Rain falls soft on a quiet street
Somewhere your rhythm and my heartbeat meet
I'll keep your story alive in mine
Long as I'm breathing, you're on my mind
[chorus]
Wherever you are, I hope you can hear
I'm carrying your name year after year
Every song I write got a piece of you in
Every stage I take, I feel you again
Gone too soon but never really gone
Your light keeps shining, keeps playing on
