One day I came upon a girl
Laying flowers by a stone
I said it is not my intention
To intrude upon your grief
I say one thing and one thing only
That somewhere it is written
In a book all bound in gold
They are assured a place in heaven
And the ones who rocked and rolled
She said he was taken in his
And since that fateful morning
I've come to feel his presence here
And if you were to ask me,
it is his voice I miss the most
When someone speaks a little like him,
I turn as if I've seen a ghost
And somewhere it is written
in a book all bound in gold
A shore, a place in heaven and the
I prepared to take my leave
For her face was drawn and pale
She said, your words so kind
When my courage starts to fail
For you see, in the middle of the night
I cannot keep my thoughts at bay
I see him climbing up the burning stairwell
it is written in a book all bound in gold
There is sure a place in heaven
The ones who rocked and were old
And somewhere it is written
In the book of kindred souls
They answered yes to the question
