I watched the smoke,
As it grew darker,
And blew up through the roof.
I watched the fed,
Saw them panic,
As the fire grew.
I saw Virginia,
Get rid of Langley,
And it's secrets too.
I held your hand,
And sat there knowing,
That we'd make it through.

I saw this man,
Dispose of hunger,
And soap operas too.
I saw this field,
That grew perfection,
Full of things you do.
I saw this box,
Get rid of heartache,
And cure cancer too.
When I awoke,
I sat there hoping,
This is what we'll do.

If we can,
We will leave a letter and this song
For you,
And we'll write,
Once a day,
And float it through the sea,
To you.
We'll regret,
All those things we thought of but didn't ever do.

If we can,
We will leave a letter and this song
For you,
And we'll write,
Once a day,
And float it through the sea,
To you.
We'll regret,
All those things we thought of
But didn't ever do.
When the sky,
Seems to clear,
Who will then be left but a few?
Me and you.
