2. Secrets are written in the sky;

Looks like I've lost the love I've never found.
Though the sound of hope has left me again,
I hear music up above.

3. I hear Rosetta singing in the night:

Echoes of light that shine like stars after they've gone,
And tonight she's my guide as I go on alone,
With the music up above.
