[Verse 1]

Cicada, won't you sing?

Come carry me under your wing

I want to hear the mercy of your song

Cicada, comfort me

It’s dark outside and I can't see

I want to feel the light under the earth

I watched the sun go low

The shadows crept up from below

You sang even as the world came down

[Chorus]

When I hear the sound

I know you're around

And when I’m alone

I hear a voice I know

Give me one more day

Let me hear you say

I'll remember you, my friend

Your song will never end

[Verse 2]

Cicada, stay up late

Tell me about the grace again

I want to see the stars shine from your eyes

Cicada, don't you know

That everyone sings the song you wrote?

You left too soon but you left us so much

We spend a lifetime waiting

For someone who makes it all make sense

Who sees us how we see ourselves

So say goodnight but not goodbye

I'll see you on the other side

I'll spend my life behind with you inside me

[Chorus]

When I hear the sound

I know you're around

And when I'm alone

I hear a voice I know

Give me one more day

Let me hear you say

I'll remember you, my friend

Your song will never end

[Bridge]

Sun don’t set, I won’t forget the things you left

[Chorus]

When I hear the sound

I know you're around

And when I’m alone

I hear a voice I know

Give me one more day

Let me hear you say

I'll remember you, my friend

Your song will never end
